Space Invaders

I live in the birth of Nintendo vs Sony vs Sega

Trying to beat that high score in the Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat

Combat with a K

That innovative ****

I survived the destruction of Sega Dreamcast

As they became third party

And Microsoft took their place with Xbox and Ninja Gaiden

Alive from that old arcade

I live in the awing of the interactive Wii

And internet friendly Playstation 3

I also live in the original Mario Bros and Pac Man and...

Terminator vs. Robo-Cop

Yea

I bet you don't remember that one

Or Galaga or Excitebike

Or even that good old

Asteroid, space dodging, alien blasting

Spacce Invaders!

Yea, I'm from Nintendoland

No... Segaworld

Nah... Sony City

Nu uhn... Microsoft...

Can't even think of a place for that

I am from that video gamer nation

That fight, hack, slash, race, create, explore, role-play

Even play those insane sports

See I'm from that...

See, I am from that...

I am from that

Video gamer heaven descended

That has that powerful curiosity and love for that

Space Invaders!

No

That love for all video games

And that memory of the ****** game graveyard

Where E.T. now resides...

See, I'm part of the new gen

Trying to play Street Fighter 4, Final Fantasy XIII, Star Ocean

Saying "I go harder than you young bloods cause I played

Space Invaders!"

So, what era am I from?

I'm from the era of all gamers

Playing Space Invaders

Space Invaders!

I'm from the

"Game of the Year goes to..."

Mario, Tekken, Metal Slug

Namco, Sega, Bandai, Konami

All those companies that started as something else

But realized their calling was for our nation

Cause you see

I'm from that

Old school Nintendo

New School Wii

Old school Playstation

New school PS3

Old school Sega

New school Microsoft 360

I'm from a legacy that always succeeds in giving us dreams

That always seem to revert back to that

Old school

Asteroid, space dodging, alien blasting

Space Invaders!!!!!
