| Disc one spins, and a tale begins
|
| About a punky dude who’s emo just a bit?
|
| His memory’s shit, but he’s real tight-knit
|
| With a childhood friend who has enormous eyes
|
| He teams up with a guy who’s basically
|
| How Asians think black people really act
|
| And they enlist ecoterrorists
|
| 'Cause they’re violent environmentalists
|
| But along the way Cloud goes astray
|
| And he falls into a church
|
| (I pity da fool!)
|
| Meets a chick, they quickly click
|
| And then she’s kidnapped by an evil corp’rate dick
|
| Now the party tries to get her back
|
| But they fail real hard and soon get trapped
|
| Suddenly they’re free
|
| But why, how can this be?
|
| They trace a bloody trail
|
| And find this guy impaled
|
| They ask who knocked him off
|
| A man named Sephiroth
|
| But now they must depart
|
| In a sequence I call «Super Mako Kart!»
|
| Blow by blow, that’s the whole intro
|
| But there is so much more awaiting them
|
| And so just where they’ll go, they don’t even know
|
| That’s when minigames start messing with the flow
|
| Minigames, minigames
|
| So many, so mini
|
| Minigames, many games
|
| Hard to tell things apart
|
| Which is the normal game? |
| Which is the minigame?
|
| CPR minigame! |
| Dolphin jump minigame
|
| Battle-bots minigame! |
| Gay orgy minigame!
|
| Chocobo race minigame! |
| Snowboarding minigame!
|
| Hypothermia minigame! |
| Slappedy slappedy minigame!
|
| Submarine minigame! |
| Thirty cats minigame!
|
| Fall and die minigame!
|
| «Who am I?» |
| minigame!
|
| In '97, this game took the cake
|
| You might say Squaresoft hit its limit break
|
| Your sales were high, you hit your stride
|
| Not a dry eye
|
| When Aerith die-yied, yes, we cried
|
| But that aside
|
| Your plot has mile-wide gaping holes
|
| And in my eyes
|
| You mostly ride on visuals
|
| Such a technological leap
|
| But the story curve is so steep
|
| Still the fanboys say you’re number one
|
| Sure, you mainstreamed JRPGs
|
| Brought the cartridge guys to their knees
|
| But some things lost got i’n tarnslation!
|
| At least there’s not a sword that’s also a gun!
|
| And in the end, despite the typos
|
| And endless sidequest filler
|
| Less folks woulda played numbers one through six
|
| If seven hadn’t been so killer!
|
| You were ambitious, you had guts
|
| Maybe pie-eyed
|
| Some parts were real kicks in the nuts
|
| But you kicked butts
|
| Oh, F-F-V-I-I
|
| You’re a wonderful, blunderful
|
| Adorable, historical
|
| Tactical, phantasmical
|
| And finally fantastical
|
| Mess |
