about

Parody of “Plain Jane” by A$AP Ferg about Let's Play videos on YouTube.

lyrics

Ride down the block
Jump on a croc
Race as a Boo
Chomp on a dot
Birds in the lane
Sweatin’ from the strain
Tune in and watch
‘Cause I’m playin’ games

Camera on my face in the corner of the monitor
Welcome all my viewers with a catch phrase and moniker
Lighting and perfect make-up ‘cause of mad vanity
Kids see me on their little screens and learn profanity
I’m-a start playin’ a game then I’ll tell you what I’m doin’
Narrating the scene plus some little quips I threw in
Many people tell me that I need to get a life
At least I play the games, you just watch me, right?
Couple hours each day you stay undaunted
Watchin’ me play some game you wanted
No charity fundraiser or anything laudable
By the way this episode is brought to you by Audible
I might get a little arthritis in my hands
But I’m just actin’ like a jerk ‘cause I got to be
Being this obnoxious comes naturally
I’ll make millions every year because people keep watchin’ me

Ride down the block
Load up your glock
Dig in the ground
Tour in Iraq
Work on your aim
Then fire up the MAME
Tune in and watch
‘Cause I’m playin’ games

Jump on a block
Shoot at a flock
Sit down and race
Stand up and rock
Run through the flames
And back up your claims
Tune in and watch
‘Cause I’m playin’ games


Sega, Nintendo, or Sony?
Sega, Nintendo, or Sony?
Sega… hey, what about Microsoft?
Man, screw Microsoft! I’m still mad at them for buying Rare. I want more Banjo Kazooie!

I’m-a explain why you probably never seen me
I never filmed a suicide while in the forest streaming
It turns out YouTube audiences really aren’t forgiving
Please believe when you see me I’m just trying to make a living
I do dumb things all the time and I make it look so easy
But even I know there’s a limit to what we see
I think I need a break, my controller’s gettin’ greasy
And I’m wheezing, feelin’ queasy, while I’m in my basement freezing
I know that if I stick with it I’ll be a hit some day
‘Cause not just anyone can talk while they play
YouTubers are common but I know it’s meant to be
Hey look my view count just hit forty-three!

Line up a block
Pretend you’re a jock
Pull out a spine
Hob nob with Spock
Jump in the frame
Race with a train
Tune in and watch
‘Cause I’m playin’ games

Jump on a block
Open a lock
Crap in your pants
Fight with a rock
Enter your name
Or suffer through the pain
Tune in and watch
‘Cause I’m playing games

Sega, Nintendo, or Sony?
Hey, what about ColecoVision?
Sega, Nintendo, or Sony?
Or the Intellivision?
Sega, Nintendo, or Sony?
I think I have an OUYA around here somewhere...
Sega, Nintendo, or Sony?
