Home Alone
8-Bit Arcade Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’m home alone and my family is gone
They left me by myself, for the first time got it wrong
But i realized i had to chance to have fun
But two thief's tried to rob my house thinking I’m dumb
Home alone, yeah I’m doing what I want
Making a mess, having fun
Tell me how I beat the bad guys and I was the only son
Tricks no treats, maybe some
When they got inside I would run
But in the end, they lost I won
So let me introduce myself, yes my name is Kevin
The trouble started when I ruined dinner around seven
Mama sent me to the attic, I felt like a felon
Wished away my family, I was hoping it would set in
The next morning they were gone but that was a blessing
I think it was my early Christmas present
House to myself, yes I’m the only presence
I seen Old Man Marley, and no it wasn’t pleasant
He sent his fam to heaven
Harry and Marv were stalking me, the Wet Bandits
Home alone, yeah I’m doing what I want
Making a mess, having fun
Tell me how I beat the bad guys and I was the only son
Tricks no treats, maybe some
When they got inside I would run
But in the end, they lost I won
I tricked the Wet Bandits and they fell for it
The police never came what the hell sheriff?
The Wed Bandits came back now I’m hysteric
So I outsmarted them now they’re embarrassed
Set up the booby traps, I got them looking stupid
I used BB Guns, Toys, Glue, and some Fluids
They thought I was doofus, clearly they were clueless
The police caught them, that story is concluded
But the sad thing is my family is still gone
I looked everywhere in the house, backyard, and the lawn
But then I was surprised when I finally seen mom
The whole family is back, I’m so glad that they spawned
Home alone, yeah I’m doing what I want
Making a mess, having fun
Tell me how I beat the bad guys and I was the only son
Tricks no treats, maybe some




When they got inside I would run
But in the end, they lost I won
