Space Age Whiz Kids Lyrics By Joe Walsh

    i used to play that pinball
    i used to go outside
    i had to spend my money
    get on your bus and ride
    i used to go out dancing
    put on my highheeled shoes
    get in my short block chevy
    go on a downtown cruise
    i feel a little bit mixed up
    maybe i’m obsolete
    all us pinball pool sharks
    we just can’t compete

    space age whiz kids kids
    leaders in the field
    pioneers in research
    space age whiz kids

    arcade mothership monsters
    laserbeam blastshield eyes
    full on space age madness
    makebelieve satellite skies
    alien ships approaching
    there’s trouble in sector five
    left hand on the joystick
    right hand hyperspace drive

    space age whiz kids kids space age whiz kids
    space age whiz kids kids space age whiz kids

    space age whiz kids
    space age whiz kids
    space age whiz kids
    space age whiz kids

    they got nothing to do
    put another quarter in
    pay those space age dues
    donkey kong high score
    pac man’s on a roll
    klingons on the warpath
    whiz kids on patrol

    space age whiz kids space age whiz kids
    space age whiz kids space age whiz kids
    space age whiz kids space age whiz kids
    space age whiz kids space age whiz kids

    kind of a young thing
    i like space age whiz kids
    i likei likei likei need quartersquarters
    give me quarters i like quarters
