Is this the real life, or 8-bit fantasy?
These classic games are my escape from reality
Blow on the cart', insert and press start with me

I love Nintendo, it is no mystery
Because it's Mega Man, Mario
Little Mac and Nemo
When I play Nintendo, it's so very special to me
To me

Mama, just lost again
It was nice, but then I died
And I can't find the strategy guide
Mama, the game had just begun
But now I've gone and thrown the fun away!

Mama, ooh
I think I made the princess cry
When I come home right after school tomorrow
I'll game on till the dawn, because Sega doesn't matter
Too late, my lives are gone
Nintendo Power's got no tips
And that game counselor's a dick (Stop playing games)
I bought new controllers, but nothing helps
And slow-mo makes the pain just hurt much more

Mama, ooh-ooh
When we play Nintendo
I want to beat this game!
I'd use a Game Genie, but that's so freakin' lame!

I see a little guy is he an extra man?
Silly douche! Silly douche!
You'll get no extra man, no!
Crazy difficulty, feels like you're insulting me!
Old Nintendo! (Old Nintendo!)
Used to beat it! (We were ten though!)
Games were harder then, you know!
Oh is that so?! (oh-oh-oh-oh)

I'm a decent gamer, why is this not easy?
You're just a loser and you suck verily!
Can't beat a game from back when you were three!

Is there no easy mode? Or a secret code?
Bad gamer, no! You'll get no cheating code!
Eat a toad!
Lame gamer! There is no easy mode!
What a load!
Bad gamer! There is no easy mode!

Easy mode!
There's no secret code!
Secret code!
Never, never, never there's no code
Oh, what's the code oh oh oh!
No, no, easy modes or codes!
Oh, mamma mia! Mamma mia!
Ask your mama for a code!
Miyamoto, will you ever make it easy for me?
For me?
For me?

So you think you can punch me and blacken my eye?
So you think that your demon will leave me to die?!
No, Wily! Can't do this to me, Wily!
Just gotta play on!
Just gotta play on without fear!

Ooh, yeah!
Ooh, yeah!

8-bit games aren't easy, anyone can see
Time to play the next one, prove I'm a real gamer to me

When we play Nintendo
