Lyrics
[Intro] Quarter in, screen wakes up Two teams ready, hands up [Verse 1] Maya takes the red wheel, jules calls out the lane Tariq finds the old machine and beats the high-score name Coins roll by the joystick, somebody shouts, “no way!” We were kids with paper tokens, now we’re here to play [Pre-Chorus] You lean in close, i steal the lead Laugh so hard we miss the speed [Chorus] Race me, chase me, one more round Pixel cars are tearing through the town You take first, then i take two Same old friends, a brand-new high-score view Hey! hey! put another quarter in Hey! hey! let the night begin [Verse 2] Old school fighting game, jules knows every move Maya talks a fearless game, then loses with a grin Tariq tells that school-day tale we’ve heard a hundred times We still crack up at the part where the teacher caught the crime [Pre-Chorus] You lean in close, i steal the lead Laugh so hard we miss the speed [Chorus] Race me, chase me, one more round Pixel cars are tearing through the town You take first, then i take two Same old friends, a brand-new high-score view Hey! hey! put another quarter in Hey! hey! let the night begin [Bridge] Your name lights up the score display Mine’s right behind, i’m on my way The doors can wait, the clock can spin One last race, then we begin again [Final chorus] Race me, chase me, one more round Pixel cars are tearing through the town You take first, then i take two Same old friends, a brand-new high-score view Hey! hey! put another quarter in Hey! hey! let the night begin [Outro] One more game, one more grin Same old friends, let’s begin again
