I have oddly specific memories
About the Metrotown of my childhood
San Francisco’s kitschy accessories
But playing arcade games, that’s what was good

Before Playdium, before CHQ
Johnny Zee’s and Circuit Circus were lit
Quarters up, a new challenger is you
Who’s this Sheeva player? Just some misfit?

The carrot cake is a treat just next door
Mrs. Vanelli’s for a pizza slice
Beef teriyaki, more sauce I ask for
Or Rainforest Cafe, that’s extra nice

     This is how my Saturdays were spent here
     Crossing the skybridge from Eaton Centre
