The Wii didn't start the fire,
How we've done some growin' since our cartridge blowin'
The Wii didn't start the fire,
With our fingers bleedin', we were quarter feedin'

Zelda rap, look it up, "Your parents help you hook it up."
Neo Geo, Genesis, Game Boy, SNES,

Carmen Sandiego chase, Kirby likes to stuff his face,
Virtual Boy, what's in store, "And a Nintendo 64!!!"

(chorus)
Santa brought a 360, Blu-Ray on the Play Station 3,
Gameboy, second screen, watch your grandma play the Wii,
Space Marines and red rings, let me skip the Cutscenes
Tweens mash classic rock, flimsy plastic head stock
Live thrives, pricks abound, PSN a ghost town
Gabe and Tycho, Mountain Dew, G4, Yahtzee, Chiptune
Motion sensors all the same, Blizzard gives us one campaign
DLC, "Screw the fee!", 3DS and Half Life 3!
The Wii didn't start the fire,
How we've done some growin' since our cartridge blowin'
The Wii didn't start the fire,
Yeah, gaming's on a role, just look at Uwe Boll
(chorus, fade out)
