    Pac-Man Song


    Pac-Man has inspired everything from a guitar to cereal, so it makes sense that someone wrote a song about the game.

    Start Over by Mostly Harmless includes metal and jazz solos meant to represent the perspectives of the big yellow eater and the transparent multi-hued eaties. It also has an amazing solo comprised entirely of mixed up Pac-Man arcade sounds. The lyrics are a bit of a stretch, but it's still worth checking out.

    Inky, Blinky, Clyde, better move aside
    Energizer ride for the cherries
    Pinky cannot hide in the blue divide
    Ghost and Man collide, he gets buried

    Time's up, Pinky takes a stand
    in the center of the map
    His two eyes float away and
    here he haunts again

    His eyes rebound with delight
    As I scramble to the right
    Appearing on the left, why won't this maze end?

    And you start over, and you start over.
