Okay, straight up, the song is about masturbation. Mutual masturbation, in fact. The implications start right away:

Grab a joystick and then come sit next to me
If you’ve ever held a joystick
Then I’m sure you would agree
That if your hands aren’t on a joystick
You’re not having any fun
The best of toys, for girls and boys
Good times for everyone

Okay, so that’s not so bad, right? I mean, maybe there’s some hinting going on, but it’s more of a double entendre, right?

Wake up sleepyhead, get on out of bed
So many games to play, come join in
This sensation, my fixation
What’s to think about, just have fun

So many games to play… sensation… fixation… arguing against reluctance…

Don’t go out tonight, let’s stay inside
Blow the hours away just you and me
Let’s see who will win
I’ll start, you jump in
Who will come out on top
Wait and see

‘Blow’ the hours away? Racing? Initiating? ‘who’ll come out on top?’

This song cracks me up. The cutesy synths and major key alongside the sexual innuendo is great – maybe it’s a rorshach sort of situation, but I can’t see this song being about anything other than some guy asking his friend to indulge in some circle-jerking. Right on, Super 8-Bit Bros.
