Lyrics
Verse 1
Silver
Edge of the slot
I am sweating through my cotton shirt
My pockets
Empty
Cold metal slips
Gravity takes the round silver disc
Click
The screen wakes up
Verse 2
Dusty glass
Smell of ozone
I am the master of the joystick
Left
Right
A blue blur
Buttons are clicking like a clock
Speed
Fire
Power
The pixels are bleeding red and gold
Winning
Maybe
Chorus
Give me that quarter
Give me that life
One more quarter
One more life
I am never going home
I am never going home
Give me that quarter
Give me that life
Verse 3
Level ten
Boss is massive
Green slime dripping from his jaw
Jump
Duck
Slide away
The timer is ticking down to zero
No
Wait
Panic
My thumb is cramping on the plastic
Lose
Again
Chorus
Give me that quarter
Give me that life
One more quarter
One more life
I am never going home
I am never going home
Give me that quarter
Give me that life
Bridge
Check the floor
Check the cracks
Check the change return
Need it
Want it
Found it
Verse 4
Scuffed floor
Dim room
I found a nickel and three pennies
Bad luck
Sad truth
The high score belongs to someone else
Now
Always
Forever
Walking out into the heavy rain
Spent
Done
Chorus
Give me that quarter
Give me that life
One more quarter
One more life
I am never going home
I am never going home
Give me that quarter
Give me that life
Post-Chorus
Life
Life
Life
One more
One more
One more life
Quarter in the machine
Quarter in the machine
