Lyrics[]
What if I were born again and my Zen
Didn't kick me up a notch
I won't know what to do without you
So I'll just sit back and watch as
Days turn into nights turn into weeks
Turn into years
The stars go around
And they cut the ground
And the lights all disappear
No matter what I do, yeah it's true
I long to spend another 30 lives with you
Yeah I do, I'd love to spend
Another 30 lives with you
As my mood ring turns dark blue
I accrue these yearnings not to die
I won't know what to do without you
If I'm spawned back up to life
And the days turn into nights turn into weeks
Turn into years
And the boredom comes
And there's no one else
Who can wipe away the tears
No matter what I do, yeah it's true
I long to spend another 30 lives with you
Yeah I do, I'd love to spend
Another 30 lives with you
Up Up Down Down
Left Right Left Right
B A Select Start
No matter what I do, yeah it's true
I long to spend another 30 lives with you
Yeah I do, I'd love to spend
Another 30 lives with you
Trivia[]
- The lyrics of Up-Up-Down-Dance Mix version features the reference of the traditional Konami Code (⬆️⬆️⬇️⬇️⬅️➡️⬅️➡️ B A). This code is a reference of the game Contra if the player inserts this code correctly in the main game screen and starts the game with 30 lives. This code was inserted in another Konami games, but with a different effect (more continues, easter eggs...).
