OOObject OOde – Control to Freedom
Three generations go by
Still the same default dye
For each of your thumbs a rubbery eye
A black hole, they describe me, a bane
There’s great irony in the name
Because I let you do so much in the game
Villains end with a pull of a trigger
Be the hero, people march to your beat
Press down A, you can create a figure
Don’t cheat!
Without ever leaving your seat
Move left, right, explore a new world
Chart the uncharted
Chat the chatty
Be free
Do books let you do what you want?
And they say I control your life.
