I remember when:
We couldn’t solve the rubix cube;
we was mad as shit
We’d take it apart or move the stickers
but they wouldn’t stick
Madballs, Game of life, chutes and ladders
And in Uno I couldn’t be faded I’m the master
Water balloon fights,
Kendra? Had to nail her
Pick a number, pick a color, paper fortune tellers
Kissy fur, Paw Paw, Chico Sticks
Atari, Coleco vison, Neo Geo?
Quit.
We used to play tag, and know what I miss?
“Bubble gum bubble gum
in-
a-
dish”
It was Good Times,
Janet was Penny Woods
I dream of Jeanie and Bewitched was good
Moms watched Dynasty and falcon Crest
Dolly Parton and Wonder woman had the best breasts
Root beer barrels, Coconut candy
And the strawberry joints you always got from your granny
Capri Sun?
Moms would never buy
Couldn’t sleep with the closet door open, I’d cry
What’s under the bed? At night I never knew
If the sheet hung off of the side I was through!
Puttin’ on the hits, Soul Train and Solid Gold
BET’s unseen VJ Alvin Jones
Inspector Gadget, Penny and Brain, that was the dog
And you had chocolate milk if Cocoa pebbles start to sog
Ghost busters, Teen Wolf and robo Cop
I had the fat laces in my Adidas shell tops
We played Red Light-Green light, girls had Hopscotch
And we settled arguments with Paper, Scissor, Rock
Annie lived the Hard Knock, Punky had Uncle Henry
Rudy called him Bud, but his name was Kenny
Voltron came out the toy had the popin’ fists
I used to play Ms Pac Man like ‘aint no stoppin this’
Superman saved the city of Metropolis
Webster had Ma’am and George Papadopoulos
Grease was the Word, Pink Ladies and T Birds
Lamar, and Booger, on revenge of the nerds
Never saw ET, my shit was The Gremlins
Had the Green rain boots before we rocked Timberlands
Wouldn’t play Jacks it was feminine
All of this shit how do I keep rememberin?
