When I was a young boy,
My father took me to zany brainy,
To my first tournament,
He said, son when you grow up,
Will you be, the champion of,
The county, the state and then the world,
He said, will you defeat them,
Opponents and all the water trainers,
Their decks that they have made,
Because one day, you'll beat them,
And own them, and lead them in the summer,
To Pokemon Parade...

When I was a young boy,
My father took me to zany brainy,
To join the P.O.P.,
He said son when you grow up,
will you be the champion of,
The county, the state and then the world!

Sometimes I get the feeling,
That maybe I should quit,
And other times I feel like I'm too old,
And in the end,
I've scratched my head,
Cuz I just cannot quit,
I take a look at my deck and I know,

I'll carry on,
I'll carry on,
And though you get broken and defeated,
Your weary Absol marches,

On and on we play year after year,
(Oh oh oh)
See the awkward faces of your peers,
(Oh oh oh)
Take a look at me cuz I could not care at all,

Do or die,
You'll never make me,
No yu-gi-oh or magic takes my heart,
I won't explain, cuz i don't have to,
Now let's evolve shelgon to salamence,
I just don't care if you think I'm a geek,
I'm unashamed, cuz this is who I am,
Now give a boo for all those losers,
Listen here, cuz this is pokemon,

I'll be the champ,
I'll be the hero,
No one will care,
That I won Pokemon,
But no one cares,
They think I'm stupid,
I DON'T CARE,

I'm never done,
I'm never done,
And though my opponent gets his prizes,
I just don't quit cuz,
I'll carry on,
I'll carry on,
I'll carry on,
I'll carry on,
With POKEMON!
