​brentalfloss, Dodger - Game Launch Rock! lyrics

Wow, there's so many new video
Game consoles coming out!
I'm gonna save up my allowance
And buy 'em all!
You might wanna think twice about that, kiddo

Back in the '90s when you bought a new system
It was basically ready to go
But those days are gone by, so buddy
Don't be that guy
You wanna be the first in line, but
I say, "no, no, no, no, no!"

They won't have near enough games
No matter how great they seem
It takes at least a year or
Two before they're runnin' full steam
Yes, it's a dirty little trick
So you gotta be staunch, kid
Don't ever buy a console at launch
I'm bein' serious
Do not ever buy a console at launch!
But the video game companies
Promise all these great
Games and features within the first year!
Sure, just like presidential candidates
They'll say anything to get your vote
The way game companies just want
You to buy their console!

Didn't you want a new Wii U? More like PU!
PS4? Oh, give me more! Xbox One? Xbox done!
Ouya? Uhh, what?

The OS'll be a mess, so you gotta be staunch
Kid don't ever buy a console at launch
Now sing it with me
Do not ever buy a console at launch!

That's right! And even if they release
A picture perfect device
You know that 6-to-12 months later
They'll be droppin' the price!
Ain't that some crap? It's a trap
So you gotta be staunch, child
Don't ever buy a console at launch
(Or Apple product) but don't ever, never
Never buy a modern gaming console at launch
Don't try it
Don't you buy that console at launch! yeah!
