Mother, can I

Have five dollars?

Mother, can I?

Can I?

Mother can I

Have five dollars?

Mother, can I?

Well, can I?

Mom is chillin' with some coffee 'cause she’s done with chores

The Trib’s being read so it’s spread out on the floor

The arcade’s open, they just opened all their doors

I need to get my fix, I ate my Kix, can’t wait no more

Mickey D’s on the way for my genetic inclination

French fried potaters, they’re the greatest in the nation

Oldsmobile station wagon, fake wood paneling on the side

Cream colored tan leather, don’t be mad because I’m fly

Liberty had Galaga and Hawthorn had its Doom

As in Temple, make it simple, it was the middle of a boom

Sears had a nice selection, bottom level bathrooms

Par-King had Jungle Hunt, Shinobi Kung-Fu

Across the street from Adler Park, there lay a lair so very dark

A dragon’s form is sleepin', snoring clouds of smoke and sparks

Waiting for a challenge, someone daring who’s legit

Daphne’s wearing next to nothing, someone let me see a tit!

Mom, can I have five dollars?

It would really save my life

Games America, Milwaukee Avenue

Can I get a ride and some fries?

Let’s get down to business, poppin' pills with the Misses

Baby’s got the pinball, it’s too difficult for this dimwit

There’s 1944, Spy Hunter, Burgertime

Those are kinda easy so they can murder time

Got a token in my 'roos, my shoes about to burst

Got tokens in my blue plastic squeeze coin purse

Got tokens, are you jokin'?

Just lost them all, it hurts

Mom, please bring more money and a Dairy Queen dessert

Time to beg the guy in the corner for a freebie

I’ve been walking 'round looking sad, I’m pretty sure he sees me

He’s Chicago as can be, overweight, moustache

Flat top, classic rock, in his office countin' cash

Likes me for a bit then he gets sick of my shit

Everyday dealin' with kids.

Here’s some tokens, please split

So I throw down the Gauntlet, theme song’s kinda catchy

Listen to the Tron game 'till my mom comes to get me
