Recall the ti-ime
You were a kid, aged about four to fi-ive
Ev'rywhere you roa-oamed
You played a game, that ev'rybody kno-o-ows
This game was fu-u-un
Whether at home or at the mall
In shoes or tho-o-ongs
You call 'em flip-flop's but I don't

It sure annoyed our folks when we played
We didn't care, we had fun, ma-a-ate
Fun's Best I Ever Had just like Dra-eeee-ake
And so we sai-aid

"It's a lava, it's a lava ti-ile
Don't touch it or you'll burn up, dude
So just jump a-, so just jump arou-ound
Yeah!"

"It's a lava, it's a lava ti-ile
It's lava cause we said it's true
So just move a-, so just move arou-ound
Yeah!"

Some of the ti-ime
The lava tiles were a certain ki-ind
Black and white floo-oor
That's mostly black, then the safe tiles were whi-i-ite
Might've looked du-u-umb
Jump from one tile to the next
Might look like moro-o-ons
We're kids, what do you expect?

It doesn't matter if the rules change
Clingin' to shelves or not, still grea-ea-eat
Early in the mornin' or when la-eeee-ate
Still always sai-aid

"It's a lava, it's a lava ti-ile
Avoid it cause you'll burn up, dude
So just hop a-, so just hop arou-ound
Yeah!"

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Ain't played it? I feel sad for you
"It's a lava, it's a lava ti-ile
Don't wanna be an ash pile, dude
So just skip a-, so just skip arou-ound
Yeah!"

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Yeah!
