Mario Kart

(album: What A Mess, The Human Mind - 2021)

We didn't think anything of it
Just another cold stormy night
We were gonna pick up pizza
But we were too drunk to drive
So we got Dominos at the doorstep
Another bottle of Barefoot wine
Sinking into the cushions
Leaving this world behind like
Ooooo electricity
Ooooo between you and me

And I thought that we were only playing games at the start
But you knew the cheat code combos
That would capture my heart
And I was mesmerized by the light in your eyes
From that screen in the dark
So I fell in love with you while we played Mario Kart
Oh my god
I fell so hard

Then I chased you through your castle
Hidden in the moonlit clouds
And I found a secret level
When you laid me down like
Ooooo electricity
Ooooo between you and me

And I thought that we were only playing games at the start
But you knew the cheat code combos
That would capture my heart
And I was mesmerized by the light in your eyes
From that screen in the dark
So I fell in love with you while we played Mario Kart
You were Princess and I was Toad
I was going for the gold
You said you'd never kiss a frog until you met me
I was tossing all my shells
And you were casting all your spells
And at some point I realized you were the trophy
Wave those checkers

And I thought that we were only playing games at the start
But you knew the cheat code combos
That would capture my heart
And I was mesmerized by the light in your eyes
From that screen in the dark
So I fell in love with you while we played Mario Kart
You were Princess and I was Toad
I was going for the gold
You said you'd never kiss a frog until you met me
I was tossing all my shells
And you were casting all your spells
And at some point I realized you were the trophy

I didn't even win the race
But winning you was first place
And honestly I'd hit the breaks
Baby if the fastest way to you is going slower
I didn't even win the race
But winning you was first place
Baby cause the fastest way to you is going slower
