The Lyrics
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Lost in this dark maze
You don't know what lies around that corner, right?
Pac-Man, there's a pack of ghosts that's led by Clyde
Eat the flashing white pill
You will knock them out and then you'll take a bite
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), oh
I played it in the arcade
About twenty times each day
Never got past level three
Don't know how anyone could get so good
The original is peak
But those 3D games were weak
I'll tell you now, so listen up there's only one...
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight)
Lost in this dark maze
You don't know what lies around that corner, right?
Pac-Man, there's a pack of ghosts that's led by Clyde
Eat the flashing white pill
You will knock them out and then you'll take a bite
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), oh
I played it in the arcade
About twenty times each day
Never got past level three
Don't know how anyone could get so good
The original is peak
But those 3D games were weak
I'll tell you now, so listen up there's only one...
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man, you will have to eat all those pills tonight
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight), Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight),
Pac-Man (eat all those pills tonight)

Very cute...and I never got past level 3 either,lol.
Good job. The Police and Pac Man, that takes me back.
Very good and I did get past level 3 one time.
I used to be really good at Ms Pac-Man, but I haven't played it in three years. Anyway, nice job.
I always found PacMan frustrating, but your work with it has made it better!
Haha now if I can get the song out of my head.... paaac man ROFL
I thank you all for your votes. From the votes, I assume that this is my top parody so far. My 10th parody, a milestone for me, is coming up. I will try to find a way to thank you for your support.
I already placed my vote but forgot to leave a comment. I like Pac-Man (actually, Ms Pac-man, but I always refer to it as Pac-Man). :)
The other day I played Ms. Pac-Man for the first time in three and a half years; I seem to have lost my skill. Of course, the joystick on that machine was harder to control and it hurt my hand; I couldn't get past the peach level.
feb 04 sotm--Good stuff, Maynard
(SOTM FEB) 555, excellent! I love it!
What Johnny said
Thanks all for the votes, but uh, agri, that's not my name. There must be some confusion.
Vinc. I am just pulling your leg, it's a family pet phrase when something someone cooked tastes real good. It was originally used in a Maypo Hot Cereal commercial from the '50s (before my time and probably before yours, too). I use it here as a catch-all comment for the contests when I can't think of something clever to say (since we have to type SOMETHING. Maybe that's what I'll do on the nest SOTM and ABC--just type SOMETHING!))
Like I said, there has been some confusion. You are clearly a very confused little man.
(SOTM FEB) You got game! But must I must confess that I didīt find it especially funny. Maybe Iīm too old for arcading. 534.
(SOTM) Yeah! Amazing parody.
Heh heh. "Pac-Man" is a great sub for "Roxanne," and I particularly like "You don't know what lies around that corner."
(FEB SOTM) Great pacing job. Not much on arcading myself anymore, but you did a fine job...gave you 5-4-4 here.
Funny, especially the mental image of Sting whining "Pac-Maaaaaaan" :-)
Good stuff, The Invincible Maynard.
Yep! I also had visions of a sincere Sting wailing the word!
(SOTM) Simple but eloquent.
For those about to game... WE SOL-UTE YOU! Good work, TI.
Good job I.
I guess I've become really good at Ms. Pac Man once again. The other day I got past the banana level, and after that (and in the subsequent levels), random fruits bounce around the maze (but the first fruit that bounces around won't necessarily be the same as the second one). I already voted 5-5-5 on this, by the way.
Hey, this is good.
Great choice of a match! And true to the era. I like to sing backup, so now it's gonna be "Eat all of those pills tonight! Eat all of those pills tonight!"
