Crash Culture - First Boot Summer 97

Nostalgic song about booting up first PC in the summer of 97 Lyrics: [Verse 1] Sunburn shins and a busted ball Dad drags in this beige brick wall Fat screen glow in a dusty room He says "read the book before you touch it Soon" Floppy disk on the plastic desk Sweaty hands Heart in my chest Clicked past every warning sign Thought I'd be a wizard in record time [Chorus] First boot Summer ’97 Goodbye field Hello heaven 56K screaming through the walls Line’s busy Mom can’t make her calls First boot Summer ’97 Crushed that start-up like it’s legend Dad said “read the manual Kid” I hit one key and crashed the whole thing [Verse 2] Friends outside kicking up that dust I’m inside chasing colored rust Mouse in hand like a gamepad grip Menus open I’m on this trip Blue screen thunder System fried Frozen logo Panic in my eyes Dad storms in Sees the frozen glow Says “What’d you do?” I shrug “I dunno” [Chorus] First boot Summer ’97 Goodbye field Hello heaven 56K screaming through the walls Line’s busy Mom can’t make her calls First boot Summer ’97 Crushed that start-up like it’s legend Dad said “read the manual Kid” I hit one key and crashed the whole thing [Bridge] [half-time drums] No more scraped knees Just sore eyes Trading dirt for pixel skies All my toys in a plastic tower All my friends in an endless hour [double-time Shouted] “Come outside!” they bang the door But my world’s on the bedroom floor I was done hanging out by then I just wanted that boot again [Chorus] [Chorus]
