Barcade Date - YTCracker

Show up at her house around six

Her driveway paved in them offset bricks

Always been a little nervous around them hot chicks

Cause of all those years I spent on computer chips

Hesitate as I approach her door

I don’t even have a place to take her on this date so what am I here for?

I gotta think quickly or else

She’s gonna know im just an oaf and I’m just kidding myself

Wheres a place that we can just chill?

That I can impress her with one of my little skills?

Karaoke’s not an option man you all heard me singing

About deleting all my files and doing computer cleaning

Only sport I’m even good at is surfing up on the web

And the only place I do thats at the foot of my bed

Hold up — I think I got a solution

A staple of the past, a classic game institution

Take her on a barcade date

Make her feel special and make me look great

Show her I’m a bit of a player

So I can do the Joust in her Dragon’s Lair

Get that Elevator action I’m doing the up and down

Like I’m going on a Rampage destroying the whole town

Show her my Command of the Missile

On a grid of multicolored pixels

Take her on a barcade date

Make her feel special and make me look great

Show her I’m a bit of a player

So I can do the Joust in her Dragon’s Lair

Get that Elevator action I’m doing the up and down

Like I’m going on a Rampage destroying the whole town

Show her my Command of the Missile

On a grid of multicolored pixels

Soon as we enter I’m feeling myself at home

To the left I got Ms. Pac Man, to the right Battlezone

Listen to the bleeps and the boops

I’m putting money in the changer I’m gon' rally the troops

I got a pocket full of quarters and my homeboys do too

Sipping on the gin and the juice

Watch her eyes light up as I’m working the crane

Trying to win her a stuffed animal with all of my change

«Let me give a shot,"she states

So I give her the controls and wait

First try and she’s pulling out a dinosaur

Looks like I bring in a ringer and she’s defeating my score

Who would’ve known this girl would slaughter every record I made

And I watched her get a kill screen on each game that she played

I was a bit afraid — but was surely turned on

And i knew she was a keeper when she defeated Tron

Took her on a barcade date

I’m not that special but I should feel great

Showed her I’m not much of a player

So she might run Defender on her Dragon’s Lair

She got that Elevator action, she doing the up and down

Like she’s going on a Rampage destroying the whole town

Showed me her Command of the Missile

On a grid of multicolored pixels

Took her on a barcade date

I’m not that special but I should feel great

Showed her I’m not much of a player

Man, I’m in like Flynn

Not Erol you stupid dummy I’m talking Kevin

Even though I’m obviously lacking in talent in games

She thought it was endearing that I tried all the same

So with my Pole Position secure I felt better

I knew it was a lock when she put on my hooded sweater

And she cuddled up next to me

And touched my balls like I’m Centipede

'scuse me for being lewd I’m not used to attention

From the opposite sex but I believe that I mentioned

That clearly at the onset I think that I’m falling

Rapidly in love like four lined blocks in a column

That’s a Tetris reference — one that she’d get

One I’m sure she would appreciate me saying before we split

So I did — and she snickered

Then we headed back to her place for some Frogger and liquor

We went on a barcade date

Then we headed to her home to Invader each other’s Space

I guess we’re just a couple of players

'Bout to make a Tempest in the Dragon’s Lair

We got the Elevator action, we doing the up and down

Like we going on a Rampage destroying the whole town

Showing our Command of the Missiles
