Emulate
Workin’ in the studio, scratchin’ a beat
When a voice from the back started calling for me
I turned around fast to see who it was
My big blue machine, I knew it because
The light were lit, the power was tripped
Who else could it be but my Emulator 2
Searching my disc, but not just one
This machine has two drives to run
To run the sounds that are in my mind
And on the f#cking discs that go inside
Running two drives at the same time
To make the instrumental to back this rhyme
EmuFactory discs are great
And so are the ones that you create
A drum, a streak, a horn, a bass
500 drumkiller bytes of memory space
So what you wanna know, who made this tune?
It’s come from yours truly in my Emulator 2
Emulate
So of you may think I’m going too far
And that I should be singing about a guitar
But need I remind you of what we are
1984 and ’85, these are the years that brought alive
Emu2 in the first, then the 2+ to quench your thirst
For a synthesizer greatness that you crave
Not just for the sound but the sampling rate
Gimme best servant, just let it create
You can even sample sounds from the Jupiter 8
Emulate
Emulate
No single synth has had more hits
Than the Emulator 2, I can guarantee this
Where would I be without my partner in crime
Using some synths like a poser in decline
So before you assume I hook direct to a Mac
And program the parts to record the playback
I didn’t do that, my integrity stands
I still play the keys in real with my hands
Never before has a cut been made
I bought the Emulator 2 for what it could say
No presets built on this thing
Use a floppy disc to make it sing
If you can’t handle what it brings
Just fake everything like it’s 2016
Now though my second album might be causing a fuss
My third next album will be called the 2+
Now everyone knows and they won’t soon forget
But you haven’t heard anything yet
