1990s Nostalgia
Let's head a long way back to when the days were still good
Past millennium lines to nineteen hundreds childhood
We're aiming for the nineteen-nineties to be exact

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen were both the top act
Art Attack packed impact — had us grasping the abstract
Main character energy is what Wishbone tracked down
The Rangers were in power, morphin to save the town
We watched as a boy met the world and learned how to love
Free Willy taught us what to do when push comes to shove
I kid you not, The Sandlot, always fit like a glove
Magic was made by a bus — we were Saved By The Bell
Space Jam was a slam dunk — that's no reach nor oversell

Tuning into Fresh Prince was a true coming-of-age
Tube TV sets and VHS tapes were all the rage
If every film you owned was feeling lacklustre
You could rent another from your local Blockbuster
Rabbit ears were not just animated in cartoon
We depended on them to tune into Sailor Moon
Bunny ears bombed photos and suck it, we were signing
We were glued to Windows solitary sweep mining

For all you modern techies, we had home computers
Doom was amongst the first of the first-person shooters
We slowly surfed the web on dial-up internet
It made noises that would instantly incite regret
When one was to instinctively pick up the landline
But the genuine answers Jeeves gave did us just fine

On MSN, we instantly messaged the results
On Yahoo games, we shot our shots against adults
We spent hours playing Sega and Nintendo games
Sonic, Mortal Kombat and Tetris were all prized names
Donkey Kong, Star Fox — Legend of Zelda, for the pros
Not to even mention the Super Mario Bros

While out and about, you would wear your Nikes or Airwalks
Boys wearing saggy, baggy jeans...
