lyrics

Ladies and gentlemen we’re gathered here today
To remember all our friends who’ve gone before
It’s been more than twenty years, and I’ve not shed one tear
Now listen up and hear my eulogy

Twenty bucks in quarters in 1989
Equaled an afternoon adventure
Teenage turtles and exciting bikes
Were all my friends
Saving the world three chances at a time

‡ But now it is all gone
The world it has moved on
Seems something has gone wrong
That’s why we sing this song ‡

So here’s to the Arcade
And what you meant to me
A symbol of in-person camaraderie
But now you’re dead and gone
The world it has moved on
A victim to Xbox and Angry Birds

While sitting up in my room
By my stereo
Waiting for a certain song to play
When it would finally come up
I’d press record
And pray the DJ doesn’t talk between

‡

So here’s to the Mix Tape
And what you meant to me
A symbol of teen angst and psychology
But now you’re dead and gone
The world it has moved on
A victim to iTunes and MP3’s

When wandering through the aisles of my local store
Equaled and evening of adventure
Whatever cassette I might rent
I’d take it back rewound
To avoid any penalties

‡

So here’s to the Video Store
And what you meant to me
A symbol of impression and discovery
But now you’re dead and gone
The world it has move on
A victim to YouTube and the Netflix.
