[English]

Codex, what are you doing? It's game time!

I think I play too much...

People say it's weird. We should cut back.

That's insane.

[clicks] [music starts]

What are you doing?

I'm convincing you to play through song.

It's not going to work.

Boot up, embrace the feeling

the start button is the portal to your being.

Turn on, it's a pleasure device.

Game with me, it's the ultimate spice!

I promise you, it won't ever be dull.

In a world you're all powerful.

I'll buff you, don't be affraid.

It's Tuesday night, let's do this raid!

Game On!

Is it immature? (Game On!)

I'm insecure... (Game On!)

Don't /gquit on me! (Game On!)

We got keyboard chemistry.

I feel so much shame... I get dissed for saying that I game.

No one understands why I'm living in a fantasy land.

In-game you've got cool hair. Go from slumdog to a millionaire.

Level up, feel the bliss. Forward slash, almost kiss!

Game On!

Invite Sent! (Game On!)

Hop on Vent! (Game On!)

Say it proud! (Game On!)

Screw the crowd! (Game On!)

No one else to please. (Game On!)

I'll press your hot keys! (Game On!)

There's no disgrace.

Go the hell real life, I'll punch you in the face!

Game On! Game On! Game On! Game On! Game On! Game On! Game On! Game On!

Game on!

Steal my breath! (Game On!)

No perma-death! (Game On!)

Don't resist! (Game On!)

Give that bulb a twist.

I'll admit, when we party it sizzles. Won't let the spell fizzle.

Grab the reigns, don't re-roll. Point and click, take control!

Game On!

No disrespect! (Game On!)

We're not rejects! (Game On!)

No Remorse! (Game On!)

This is a feeling you can't outsource! (Game On!)

Invite Sent! (Game On!)

I'm on Vent! (Game On!)

Never /gquit on me! (Game On!)

We've got keyboard chemistry!

Game Oooonn!

Game Oooonn! Ooohhhh! Oooohhh!

Oh! Gaaaame Oooon!

G g g g game!

Game On!

Ok, that worked.

Let's play!

Awesome!

So... what do I do with these guys?

Cause I paid for a full hour. So...

Game Off!
