[Intro] [Verse 1] Well, he’s got a desk lamp and a Dell from ’05, Cheeto dust on the keyboard, Mountain Dew on ice. Mom’s hollerin’ upstairs, ā€œBoy, get your life right!ā€ But he’s raidin’ Orgrimmar every damn night. Azeroth’s his kingdom, that basement’s his cage, Forty years of respawns, but he’s stuck on the same stage. [Chorus] He’s a level 40 man with a level 1 plan, Yells, ā€œMom! Bring me fries and a lunchable, can!ā€ Got a sword made of pixels, a heart full of shame, Livin’ off meatloaf and a World of Warcraft fame. [Verse 2] The guildmates don’t know he’s baldin’ at the crown, Thinks his Tauren’s a hero, but he’s the joke of the town. Mom’s cryin’ in the kitchen, ā€œWhen’s it gonna end?ā€ He’s yellin’ for pizza rolls, ā€œI’m your best friend, Karen!ā€ The UPS man’s seen every expansion he’s bought, But the only thing he’s leveled is the weight he’s not. [Chorus] He’s a level 40 man with a level 1 plan, Yells, ā€œMom! Bring me fries and a lunchable, can!ā€ Got a sword made of pixels, a heart full of shame, Livin’ off meatloaf and a World of Warcraft fame. [Bridge] The midnight oil’s burnin’, but the dreams are all deferred, Reality’s a lag spike he can’t patch with a word. Mom’s prayers hit the ceiling like his rage-quit screams, But he’ll chase that loot drop in his low-resistance jeans. [Outro] The monitor flickers as the dawn cracks the blinds, Another night’s a wrap in the life he designed. Mom sighs at the trash bag full of gamer fuel, And the glow of his screen fades to a basement jewel.
