Nintendo

In 1989
I turned you on and changed my life
You took me to worlds far away
I was just a boy learning how to play

Mario, you're my role model
“Now you're playing with power” that's my motto
I'd leave you on for days and days
Just to catch a glimpse of Zelda's face

I love you c and B
Two buttons is enough for me
PowerGlove was just for show
But Zapper kept my ducks in a row

I love you Nintendo
Without you I would not go
To my room when I was grounded
You're the best thing that I know

Playing wasn't always fun
Like when I had one life on the final boss, thought I was done
So before my saga ends
I called in reinforcements: my big sister and her friends

I love you Nintendo
Without you I would not go
To my room when I was grounded
You're the best thing that I know
I love you Nintendo
Without you I would not go
To my room when I was grounded
You're the best thing that I know

When I rode on an Excited Bike, or I punched out a Big Mike
Slashed like a Ninja Gaiden, or hopped on an cdventure Island
Lasered like a Mega Man, kicked the foot like a Ninja Turtle can
Gave a glitchy cartridge one more blow, slayed Ghosts 'n Goblins like a Tetris row
Pounded my chest with Donkey Kong Pride, or Flew claddin on a magic carpet ride
I knew I was in an 8-bit community
Thank you Nintendo you got me though puberty

I love you Nintendo
Without you I would not go
To my room when I was grounded
You're the best thing that I know
I love you Nintendo
Without you I would not go
To my room when I was grounded
You're the best thing that I know

You are the best thing
Just the best thing
You're still the best thing, the best, Oh-oh
You are the best thing
Just the best thing
You're still the best thing, the best,
Nintendo
