Somebody once told me
The world was gonna owe me
I'd save it from a not-so-good fate
I was lookin' kinda down
When a fairy came around
She said, "Hey! Listen!
There's no time to waste!"
Well, the quests start comin'
And they don't stop comin'
I have my sword ready
Or I hit the ground runnin'
It didn't make sense to reject Zelda's plea
I had to say yes or I could not leave
"Use all you've got, and learn this tune
You'd better watch yourself, or we're all doomed
You are the one, this I know
But you'll never win if you don't go
Hey now, you're a hero
Better learn and make friends
You're more than just a zero
Gather Stones and weapons
All is resting on you
Even though you don't have a clue.
In a church place
I pulled a sword from a boulder
The next thing I knew I was seven years older
The really old man said, "Don't worry."
But a guy named Shiek
Said I'd better hurry
"Evil's spread all over this land
Gannon's too strong
It's worse than planned
The temples of Fire, Forest too
Water, Shadow, Spirit
They're all waiting for you
Hey now, you're a hero
Find the Sages, old friends
Just prove you're not a zero
Get new songs and weapons
All is resting on you
Even though you don't have a clue."
Somebody once asked,
"Hey, can you please do this task?
I really can't myself, so will you please help?"
I said, "Yep."
What a concept
I have now become adept
At being gofer of the realm
Well, the quests start comin'
And they don't stop comin'
I have my sword ready
Or I hit the ground runnin'
Oh, and here is a nice surprise:
Shiek really was Zelda in disguise
I go to the keep to make my stand
With the Triforce glowing on my hand
I'll never let Gannon gain ground
I promise I'll never back down
Hey now, I'm a hero
I just hope I don't die
I know I'm not a zero
Raise an arrow, let fly
"All is resting on you...
And I know you'll come through"
