MC Chris - Pitfall lyrics

Yes, it's Supercade time
Let's have some Supercade fun, fun, fun!

Pitfall, big LOLs lick toads, trip balls
Quicksand, my jam gold bars in my hands

My name is Pitfall Harry my life
It can be scary
Often falling down a pit when I trip
It's legendary
Always running, something's coming and
I jump it, then I plummet
Every jungle's filled with fortune or
Fatalities if you're flummoxed
That's why you gotta focus -
Jump at the right time on an alligator head
Got no choice and no vines
Look out for the barrels
Donkey Kong's off screen
Lookin' for that marijuana, smoke that green!
Get that gold, get that silver
Get that shiny diamond ring
You won't like a cobra bite
Or a scorpion sting
Grab a torch and a whip then
We'll torch in the whip
Then we'll go score some chicks, quick claw
Get a grip quicksand likes to suck
Tar pit's like to swallow
Jungle's really rough but I'm a
Tough act to follow
Weekdays hella lame, all the same
Really shitty
On the weekend, seekin' out the
Secrets of the ancient city, what?!

Pitfall, big LOLs lick toads, trip balls
Quicksand, my jam gold bars in my hands
Pitfall, big LOLs lick toads, trip balls
Quicksand, my jam gold bars in my hands

Four million copies sold, bro, totally legit
It's '81 and Indiana Jones is the shit
Activision in it's wisdom, yo
It fell for a pit
A rip off that would lift off
It was swell for a bit
No-No-No need to explain if you
Feign to wonder why
The designer David Crane graduated from DeVry
Was a hit at Atari 'till he went on safari
Got a Rari, then he partied
Then the bubble burst, i'm sorry
Atari 26 was a hit for six years
Apple 2E made my dad switch gears
Too many ETs, where it's buried isn't clear
Atari 26, I guess it disappeared
Now if you look on eBay
You buy it for a grand
If you want the box, please
Put up your hands
Realities of modern life are rife
With strife and hatred
I miss shit being simple
Button smashin' in the basement

Pitfall, big LOLs lick toads, trip balls
Quicksand, my jam gold bars in my hands
Pitfall, big LOLs lick toads, trip balls
Quicksand, my jam gold bars in my hands

Behind the counter at Kay Bee
I see something I really need
Green box features a scene that
Was filmed inside my dreams
I see several lovely trees
In some jungle overseas
I see adventurer avoiding obstacles
With impossible ease
A treasure hunter swinging over
The craziest lake and Activision made it so
There's a gradient wake
And ever since I played it, it is like mania
Mate jumpin' over snakes makes me feel
Great in a way back in the day
Screen grab was a camera with a flash
Take a picture of your high score
And you might score a patch
You can put it with your patches
On your jean jacket back
'cause you jumped over chasms like
That candle jumper Jack
Activision got sold and the name got bought
Now they bring you Call of Duty
Where you might get shot and, yes
I am distraught until they
Bring back Tony Hawk thank you, Activision
All that sitting by a box

Pitfall, big LOLs lick toads, trip balls
Quicksand, my jam gold bars in my hands
Pitfall, big LOLs lick toads, trip balls
Quicksand, my jam gold bars in my hands
