[Verse] Plastic keys and a screen of gray A blinking cursor My escape My play I typed my dreams in BASIC code A pixel world where stories flowed [Chorus] I was raised on Commodore 64 Where the pixels danced Where I found my core Joystick in hand I’d explore and explore I was raised on Commodore 64 [Verse 2] Load "*" 8 1 was my prayer at night Sprites would flicker in the neon light Floppy disks held my tiny skies Each one a universe in disguise [Prechorus] Blue screen White text It called my name In that world I made my fame [Chorus] I was raised on Commodore 64 Where the pixels danced Where I found my core Joystick in hand I’d explore and explore I was raised on Commodore 64 [Bridge] Ghosts in Pac-Man and dragons in flight Caves in Zork where I’d lose all sight Sid chip sang like a choir divine Those 8-bit tunes still feel like mine
