I'm called the leading man,

Though some call me

Bad company for Fran.

xx

Gold, Jewels, and Coins are my middle names

Alas, they've also given me

A devious fame.

xx

I'm a wanted man, with 300 crime entries

I'm chased by women from

All sorts of countries.

xx

The other day I bumped into

This kid called Vaan, Who's aims

Coincide with mine;

They're the same.

xx

Says he wants to be,

A sky pirate. I said,

"Okay come work for me

As first mate".

xx

Somehow, he managed to screw up,

Got a princess to tag along, Ashe

Of Ivalice, and it's been a bash.

xx

Or rather, her attitude has,

It irks me a lot,

With her sass, she makes

Us males run amok.

xx

With her righteous, royal manner,

She'll never find a man

(Especially one as good as myself),

The pompous banner.

xx

But I'm in this mess just for the money,

Though I wouldn't say no to some cute honey.

Fran would disapprove though, She's so uptight

Never nice to me, always wanting to fight.

xx

Sigh, the life of a leading man

The glory's almost a sham.

But fear not, for I will restore the awe and fear

In the name of a pirate called Balthier!
