the very heart

I didn’t pick bulbasaurus
the games were red and blue 
I don’t know what year that was I was in the third grade 
So I guess it must have been 1998 
That’s the year the matrix game out and the columbine shootings too 
I don’t know I guess that stuff affected me 
I don’t remember if I picked red or blue 
This is a song about how I never picked bulbasaur 
There’s a green light on my wall 
I don’t know where it’s coming from 
It went away just as soon as I saw it 
It’s the fourth verse in my song 
I want to tell you all about bulbasaur 
And what he means to me and to the whole world 
But I never picked him as a started Pokémon 
it’s the pocket monsters it’s a game boy game that I got in 1998 
I played it with Jeff and Michael 
And obviously Joshua Mitchell 
and there were trading cards too 
They were worth a lot of money 
Are you still listening? It’s ok it’s just a game 
I never picked bulbasaurus 
Is that how you say his name? Bulbasaur? Is he a dinosaur? I thought it was a plant
