Note: Mr. Amano is, of course, Yoshitaka Amano, the artistic mind behind Final Fantasy 1-6, and this song is about the FF7 characters paying tribute to him.
Mr. Amano- A parody of 'Mr. Roboto' by Styx
Verse One
You're worshipping who I am,
drawing the man within.
My heart lies in Japan,
beating for every fan.
Verse Two
I've got a secret world that's hiding inside my head.
I'll start a new one, enough with toiling on this IBM.
So if you think I'm talking crazy, don't roll your eyes.
I made a game, created for fun, called FF5.
My Fantasy Five- Six leaves me dry,
won't save my hide- just give me Five.
Verse Three
I'm not an artist without devotion- just check FF3.
I'm coping well with FF7...are you missing me?
I draw a hero, I draw a savior, I'm hungry you know.
I hate those old Level Advances, they run out of control.
I'm just getting old- can't complete it whole.
Level control- it's all getting old.
Bridge
I am the sketch within, who hides inside the disk
So no one else can see the sketch inside of me.
Chorus
Thank you very much, Mr. Amano,
for drawing the ones that nobody thought to,
and thank you very much, Mr. Amano,
we got 7 and 8. It's all because of you.
Thank you, thank you,
I want to thank you, please, thank you.
Verse Four
The others may not see your place in history.
You'd save the day with 9 and leave it all behind.
The time has come at last
To look inside the disk,
so everyone can see
the sketch inside of me...
...Nomura!
