Heavy Metal and Video Games

All the boys and the girls are miserable
All the dogs and the cats are miserable
Even Saturn and Mars are miserable
But you got a yourself a new video game

The only thing that might make it better?
Fast drums and guitars like leather
Big headphones and the devil horns
Tapped orchestras on the jeweled fretboard

Don't mind the haters and all the stares
They got demons and therapists too
One button for player one
And another for the volume at twenty-two

Heavy metal and video games
Try it once and you're not the same
Heavy metal and video games
Heavy metal and video games

Heavy metal and video games
Try it once and you're not the same
Heavy metal and video games
Heavy metal and video games

All the television talkin' heads
Old vinyls of the Grateful Deads
New noises from the modem chatter
Stadiums full of "hey batter batter"

I zoned out without the new VR
Happy as a clam in the trunk of the car
Handheld like a fighter pilot
Megadeth, Lemmy and Quiet Riot

Don't mind the masses and all the sharp looks
Well they got ticks and a lot to do
One button for "play again"
And another for the volume at one-oh-two

Heavy metal and video games
Try it once and you're not the same
Heavy metal and video games
Heavy metal and video games
