Ever since I was younger, I was into video games Tron or whatever, it didn´t matter the name Thousands of my dollars, have been poured into all types of games, tryin to get the high score But now I think I have a favourite
It´s me against an ape, he´s got my girl, I´ve got to save her! Oh no, I feel an attach coming on Yo Ready Rock C I wanna play a game of Donkey Kong
It used to be a problem this addiction I have I would feel the urge, then I´d go stark raving mad Break into the arcade, screaming and hollering Anticipating putting twenty-five dollars in any machine, I was out of control I didn´t need quarters I brought, $10 bank rolls Bags of quarters, I was insane People thought that I worked there, and asked me for change But I would get defensive and yell leave me alone These are my quarters stupid, go get your own
Dude walked away with this look in his eyes like, Yo man.. I wonder what´s wrong with that guy I was addicted, a video burn-out and I would crazy when the guy would have to turn out The lights at midnight, I´d fall on my knees and say, Have a heart pal, one more game please Some nights I might sleep on the subway or outside of the arcade til it opened up the next day And when it opened at a quarter to ten it was the same old thing all over again I was doin bad my future was bleek I´d rather play games than eat or sleep until one day, this guy came along He didn´t have a radio but he was playin a song I got curious, so I said, yo what´s that noise?" (What noise? I don´t know) No fool, that noise you was makin there (What this)
Yeah That was def man, where´d you learn to do that (Man, I don´t know, I guess I always knew that I had this talent deep down inside) You wanna hear some more man Yeah (Come on let´s take a ride) He made sounds like I never heard before and he still had more Then he got me hyped when he played this incredible song and I lost my mind when Ready C played Donkey Kong
Yo Ready, get funky with it! Yo Jeff man what you doing? Give Ready a hand
Now my life is wonderful and I feel great I haven´t been in an arcade since seventy eight Thanks to Ready C I´m on an upward trail
Because he´s always by my side, he never fails me Whenever I have a video attack He´s right there by my back keeping me on track So if I bug out and act like a lunatic He does Donkey Kong and as soon as it gets to my eardrums from his vocal chords I get hyped up no matter how bored I am he always comes through Oh my fault, hold up, wait, let me tell you who Ready Rock C, here´s a brief description Of the things that he can do in his musical position Ready Rock C makes sounds with his mouth Yo Ready give an example of what I´m talking about
(game over) (Yo, Scrammy, why you still standin there)
