This song reminds me a lot of Oddworld. At least from AO and AE. I thing this song could easily be played along with various clips from the games themselves.
In bold: phrases or words to illustrate the similarities between the games and the song.
Day after day I'm more confused
But I look for the light through the pourin' rain
You know that's a game that I hate to lose
I'm feelin' the strain
Ain't it a shame
CHORUS:
Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Give me the beat boys and free my soul
I want to get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Beginin' to think that I'm wastin time
And I don't understand the things I do
(Abe receiving the Shrykull tats)
The world outside looks so unkind
(Abe being killed by a Paramite AND a Scrab)
I'm countin' on you to carry me thru
(The clip from AE where he just smashed a Blind Mud and tells the player to help him)
CHORUS:
And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
(Abe Chanting and possessing a Bell lock)
And when I'm feelin' blue
(Depressed Mud)
The guitars comin' thru to soothe me
Thanks for the joy that you've given me
(Abe waving goodbye to a closing Bird Portal)
I want you to know I believe in the song
And rhythm and rhyme and harmony
(Abe whistling)
You helped me along, you're makin' me strong
(Abe’s Oddysee Good Ending)
CHORUS:
