Originally released on Youtube on Dec. 19, 2011. LYRICS: When I was eight, dude... I couldn't wait, dude... To play this great new game called Mario Paint! A title I wish every house had... It came with a mouse and a mousepad! (It was a big deal back then) Artistic visions became decisions No criticisms to work through It tugs my heart strings And that's just the start screen Inside your art dreams await you So make a bee Make a Mii (Make a Mii) Or make a symphony (arf meow meow meow meow) Mario Paint, it ain't just quaint It's a playdate where playmates don't nay-say what you say Like an art class where you don't feel gay Select brush size, swat some flies, and then you realize... Other games are not the same It's a canvas to brandish outlandish things all day Where a nerdy kid was safe to play We were Mario Paintin' Sketching and animatin' Were we throwing a ball? Were we outside at all? Nope. We were Mario Paintin' All across the whole nation And a generation started looking into their heart Creating pieces of art What an outlet for a kid experimenting with choice Finding his creative voice So whenever I spout off with words like mofo or taint You can thank Mario Paint (Cha cha cha) By the by...
