Whatever Happened to Pong?
[Verse 1]
My brother and me used to play it down at the bar
Taking money from guys more used to the playing of cards

[Chorus]
And the paddle the paddle to the side to the side
To the side to the side and the paddle the paddle
The paddle the paddle to the side to the side
Pong
Ball in the machine

[Verse 2]
Now virtually everyone's singing a popular song
Yeah, but still I believe in the excellent joy of the Pong

[Chorus]
To the side to the side and the paddle the paddle
The paddle the paddle to the side to the side
To the side to the side and the paddle the paddle
Pong
Ball in the machine

[Verse 3]
Now if they take it H. G. Wells
Well I'll be on the first flight
To a time before the Kong
Oh, whatever happened to Pong?
[Chorus]
To the paddle the paddle to the side to the side
To the side to the side and the paddle the paddle
The paddle the paddle to the side to the side
Pong
Ball in the machine
