The Lyrics
Are you "video game" tired? Try these board games, they're fun!
It's better safe than "Sorry!", "Sorry!" is a board game
If i'm in a slide zone, then they'll bump me instead
I'll be in the home zone, that's where I wanna be
I will bump the others, and the rest will say "Sorry!"
Monopoly and Scrabble never change the same way
They're the classic kind for what kids & parents might play
Perfection blows pieces up if the time is up
Candy Land & Risk are why I can't get enough
(chorus)
The board games get real better
The way it oughta be
The board games get real better
It's the way we play for you & me
Trivial Pursuit's a game on how you know so well
I collect pie pieces to send others to hell
The queries get really tough, some do get easy
For example in Sports, it was: "Who drives #3?"
I can make contraptions in a game called Mouse Trap
I will need a manual to figure out this crap
If you think that Playstation is boring and lame
Go down to the toy store, and pick up these board games
(repeat chorus)
If i'm in a slide zone, then they'll bump me instead
I'll be in the home zone, that's where I wanna be
I will bump the others, and the rest will say "Sorry!"
Monopoly and Scrabble never change the same way
They're the classic kind for what kids & parents might play
Perfection blows pieces up if the time is up
Candy Land & Risk are why I can't get enough
(chorus)
The board games get real better
The way it oughta be
The board games get real better
It's the way we play for you & me
Trivial Pursuit's a game on how you know so well
I collect pie pieces to send others to hell
The queries get really tough, some do get easy
For example in Sports, it was: "Who drives #3?"
I can make contraptions in a game called Mouse Trap
I will need a manual to figure out this crap
If you think that Playstation is boring and lame
Go down to the toy store, and pick up these board games
(repeat chorus)
