Lyrics - Down At The Arcade by Reed Lou

Down at the arcade the defender is there
Down off of
Broadway he's there playing his games
It's very dangerous putting money down on
Robotron
Oh,
I'm the
Great
Defender
And
I really know just how to get along
Down at the arcade
Oh,
I'm the
Great
Defender
And
I really think
I've got it made
A fistful of quarters, a fifty dollar stake
Life is a gamble on
Videotape
I called a disc jockey to dedicate a song to
Blair
It's the '
Four
Tops' singing '
I'll be there'
Down at the arcade
The president called to give me the news
I've been awarded the
Nobel
Price in rhythm and blues
And
Stevie
Wonder wants to record one of my songs
Oh,
I'm the
Great
Defender
And
I really know just how to get along
Oh,
I'm the
Great
Defender, listen to my song
I really hope you like it, it isn't very long
It's rooted in the fifties but its heart's in 1984
And if you really like it
Then
I sing it for you once more
Down at the arcade
