[Intro: Dave]
Clean, black and green
Hold it in your hand, this Mario Land
In 1989, this came down the pipeline

[Verse 1: Brent]
Yeah, Mario's back!
Out to save that crazy Princess Daisy
By now he's sick of this
"Princess fakeout" bullshit
Wee, creepy sprite
Without Princess Peachy or Luigi
But he has superballs
Seriously, that's what they're called!
The quality dropped off like some kind of Mario knock-off
It clearly showed, man
Since when did turtles explode, man?

[Verse 2: Dave]
Oh Brent, come on, aren't you a little bit nostalgic for this thing?
Remember when it came out?
Way back in the day
All you had were three-frame LCD games
Our journeys had a lack
Of all but travel Scrabble packs
Yes, NES looked best, but to put this one next game in context:
It was a milestone year, handheld gaming started here!
The point I'm framing is that the state of portable gaming
Was still just larval
This was a technical marvel!
[Interlude: Brent, Dave]
Yeah, Dave, so was the cotton gin, but I wouldn't take it with me in the car!
Well, that doesn't make any sense
Neither does this game!
Maybe

[Verse 3: Brent, Dave]
But Brent! Flying heads!
That displays a great imagination
Ha, this game came, I presume, from an all-too-magic mushroom!
The gameplay was lame
Hey!
Look, I know how Mario should go, bro
This black sheep's really bad!
You'll learn one day
Oh, thanks, Dad!

But how my heart skips
For eight bits on holiday car trips
Feelings awoken!
Dave, buddy, what are you smokin'?
(And can I have some?)

[Interlude: Dave, Brent]
Love! I'm smoking love! I just think this game has earned a place on the shelf with the good Mario games which is all of them, except Sunshine, obviously
Are you kidding? Sunshine's like the best one!
Wha-
You're a wazzock
What?
You're a pillock
Come again?
You're a git
Say what now?
Uh, you're a son of a taint?
Now you're talkin'!

Key change, mofo?
You got it, here we go!

[Verse 4: Brent, Dave, Both]
Flawed, maybe so
Sure, it sucked a tad, but it's all we had!
It's got its charms and such
Alright, maybe... this much

The look was lame!
Oi! It brought Mario to the Game Boy!
Such a trendsetter
Either way, the sequel was better

Super Mario Land!
Doo-doo-dum!
Was great! (Sucks)
