Lyrics: I played a game in time gone by Back when they named them after colors I mastered Earthquake, surf, and Fly To catch them all before my brothers Then in September of last year A trailer showed our world invaded The Pokemon were coming here An app of dreams had been created I caught Squirtle on a train Pikachu was in my bathroom Then a Tauros ran away A pidgey broke an ultraball My phone stayed on through all July I dreamed I’d keep it on forever They used my childhood as a bribe I turned it off when August came First the radar got the sack! The tracking broke and then went missing…no The monsters started fighting back It sapped the fun from Pokemon... go I dreamed a game, and it came true Then became hours I had wasted The Pokemon I briefly knew Niantic killed the game I dreamed
