foreknown - the quartermaster lyrics

[produced by thebridge]

[verse 1]
on the real, who’s wanting
anything but to stay in bed all day, hit the snooze b-tton
i’m thinking of all the different ways that i can play sick
but is it going to be worth it when it’s reflected on my pay check?
i know that duty calls, but call of duty calls
wanna call the workplace and tell them that i’ve been puking all
night, but i’m out of sick time, so i’m up to my
tiny little cubicle, isn’t life beautiful?
why can’t it be like all those grade school summers?
didn’t worry about doing paperwork or crunching numbers
no deadlines to meet, no loopholes to mend
no copies to make, no emails to send
a pocket full of quarters and a room full of screens
and a place where i can live out all my adolescent dreams
somebody take me to the arcade
i wanna go back to the arcade

[hook]
no work, all play, arcade all day
no work, all play, arcade all day

[verse 2]
put a quarter in the slot and i’m on my way
hardest part is figuring out what i wanna play
i’m a glutton for these b-ttons and i’m crazy for these joysticks
so little time, man, so many choices
be a rad racer, or be a bad dude
or play some burgertime, k!lling with some fast food
inky, blinky, pinky and sue
i got ’em running from the red bow when they’re feeling blue
i can play some moonwalker, and get my michael on
or throw a glowing disc and hop on my light cycle, tron
you roll, king kong, barrel-throwing ape
got a hammer in my hand, and you think i wanna skate? please
i’m a gaming gangster, when i dig dug, i do dirt
and you don’t wanna step to me cause i’m stepping up like hubert
with the bases loaded, hit it out the park
then i’m gonna grab my weapon, hit up castlevania after dark
terminator, robocop, bionic commando
lightsabers with luke, but i’d rather play as lando
contra, got me saying konami code mantra
rampage through the city with my favorite giant monsters
hail mary, tecmo bowl, i always hit the end zone
princess peach got mario chilling out in the friend zone
bad guys, better be wary of asking for trouble
when the turtles are quadrupled and the dragons are doubled
i’m blasting asteroids and breaking out in arkanoid
these are my people, gamer kids and those that aren’t employed
we live in a palace made of circuits and wires
all play all day, no work is required
if i stop paying my bills, i’m gonna get served with court orders
but the only thing i care about is getting more quarters
and if i face a judge, i’ll let him know what we know
there’s nothing more important than stacking those tetrominoes

[hook]
no work, all play, arcade all day
no work, all play, arcade all day
no work, all play, arcade all day
no work, all play, arcade all day
