Disclaimer: I don't own pokemon or "All Star" which belongs to Smash Mouth


Somebody once told me Pokémon would rule me

I ain't the most attentive in class

Well I may have looked kind of dumb with my Game Boy under thumb

Muttering something about psychic and grass

Well the wild pokémon start coming and they don't stop coming

Gets so annoying that you just keep running

Doesn't make sense not to play for fun

Playing just to win is pretty dumb

So much to see so much to do

So what's wrong with taking the back routes

You'll never know if you don't try

You'll never soar if you don't use Fly

Chorus:

Hey now you're a Master get your pokémon, go play

Hey now you're the Hero beat Team Rocket get fame

Well I still play Silver and Gold

Only Rapid Spin can break a hold

It's a cool game and you say it'll get cooler

But people say you won't like it when you get older

Well Metronome always differs

Going from Bounce to Rain Dance to Thunder

Well Ice types are stretched a little thin

And Water types adored can't always win

My favorite's Fire how about yours

That's the type I like and I never get bored

Repeat Chorus 2X

Somebody once asked could I spare some change for games

I need to get myself away from this world

I said yep what a concept

I could use a new game myself

And we could all use a little change

Well the wild pokémon start coming and they don't stop coming

Gets so annoying that you just keep running

Doesn't make sense not to play for fun

Playing just to win is pretty dumb

So much to see so much to do

So what's wrong with taking the back routes

You'll never know if you don't try

You'll never soar if you don't use Fly

Repeat Chorus
