Contra

歌詞

I used to play Contra, on my cousin Mike's Nintendo (Cousin Mike Cousin Mike had Nintendo) I liked the games, it didn't matter because my reaction time was so slow (Kyle had poor motor skills when he was nine) We knew a code to get unlimited lives, I thought if this were real it sure would be nice. I'd be a super hero because of this code I know. It went: up up down up down left right left right a b a b select start. If I could live forever I'd have so much time to spare (you'd have time you'd have time, you already have a lot of free time) I like to travel and I'd have time to go most anywhere (like Burma and Bali and Kenosha, Wisconsin) It would be just like Ground Hog Day (With Bill Murray) I could just imagine all the instruments I could play (the calliope) I'd take big risks, do anything on a dare (I dare you to eat that hairball off the floor) and just push: up up down up down left right left right a b a b select start. But really though I can't live forever, and I think that's best 'Cause this world is not my Heaven, just a temporary nest, and I know this might not make sense to some of you listening now, but our departure from this world can be a blessing if you just see how... we don't need: up up down up down left right left right a b a b select start.
