Human Video Game Lyrics - Singles - Jazzy Jeff And The Fresh Prince

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 favorite 

It's me against an ape, he's got my girl, I've got to save her 

Oh no, I feel an attach comin' 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, screamin' and hollerin' 

Anticipatin' puttin' twenty-five dollars in 

Any machine, I was out of control 

I didn't need quarters I brought, 10 dollars 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 till 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 bleak 

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 doin'? 

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, keepin' 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 talkin' about 

Yo, Scramy, why you still standin' there? 

The game is over, sucker
