“Live And Let Die”
Posted at 19:30 on 23rd September 2018 - permalink

My latest contribution to the Marioke video game karaoke songlist – first performed 21/09/2018.

The joke here relies on the knowledge that Capcom originally released Final Fight for the SNES with only two of the three playable characters from the coin-op.

“Eliminate Guy”
– after “Live And Let Die” by Wings

When you’re Capcom, and SNES carts
Sold for 80 bucks
You’d port your games to 16-bit
(You know you did)
(You know you did)
(You know you did)
But when there’s only so much ROM
For them to fit in
They’d still give it a try

Eliminate Guy
(Eliminate Guy)
Eliminate Guy
(Eliminate Guy)

[INSTRUMENTAL]

“Cody and Haggar’ll do, yeah?”
When you hit that launch window, you know it’s gonna sell
They couldn’t fit the other guy as well

[INSTRUMENTAL]

You used to play on 16-bit
(You know you did)
(You know you did)
(You know you did)
But till you sold it us again
With Cody missing
Named it Final Fight Guy

Eliminate Guy
(Eliminate Guy)
Eliminate Guy
(Eliminate Guy)
