Pokémon - The Magikarp Song lyrics

Totally pathetic, unreliable
Known throughout the world
For being super weak

Maybe in ancient times it was really strong
That’s what the rumors say
But they’re probably wrong

But now it’s so weak the weakest in the land
So weak that it’s sad really really sad
(Magikarp)

The weak Pokémon that’s you, Magikarp
But though you are the weakest
Still you’ve won my heart

Oh, weak Pokémon my love for you is strong
Honestly, it’s magical
You’ve survived this long

All it does is jump and splash
Jump and splash around
It splashes up whole mountains
And all the way back down

Why jump? What’s the point
When nobody cares? It uses Splash in battle
Nothing happens

Jumping and splashing every single day
Until Pidgeotto… carries it away (Magikarp)

The jumping Pokémon that’s you, Magikarp
Although your moves are pointless
Still you’ve won my heart

Oh, splashing Pokémon
My love for you is strong
Honestly, it’s magical
You’ve survived this long

Wherever you go fishing
It’s the first you’ll catch
Even with an Old Rod
You’ll soon have quite a batch

Cast off in a river or a puddle, or the sea
Anywhere your hook is magikarp will be

The slightest current will carry it away
Anyplace the river bends
That's where they all stay (Magikarp)

A nibble on the line… that's you, Magikarp
Right back in you go
Because you’ve won my heart

Thought I caught a bite… but it’s Magikarp
I could never eat you
Because you’ve won my heart

Its Shiny form sparkles golden in the light
But don't be deceived
It's still Magikarp inside

Evolving into Gyarados makes it super strong
Waiting to reach that level
Takes way too long

Did you just buy one at the store yesterday?
Sorry, there’s no refunds please go away
(Magikarp)

The pity Pokémon that’s you, Magikarp
Although they think you’re worthless
Still you’ve won my heart

The pity Pokémon magikarp, it’s true
At least your lowly ranking
Means nothing to you

Beloved Pokémon that’s you, Magikarp
Somehow you’ve turned weakness
Into a kind of art

You’re my Pokémon magikarp, my dream
Six matching Magikarp that’ll be my team

Beloved Pokémon that's you, Magikarp
Magical and special
Of course you’ve won my heart

The greatest Pokémon magikarp, it’s true
And that’s why I’ve written
This love song just for you!
