MC Chris - Games America

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 it's 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?
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

Mom, can I have five dollars?
It would really save my life
Games America, Milwaukee Avenue
Can I get a ride and some fries?
Mom, can I have five dollars?
It would really save my life
Games America, Milwaukee Avenue
Can I get a ride and some fries?
