Erin Battle Lyrics

Erin Battle, can you play now?
Erin Battle, can you fight me in the game please?
Erin Battle, don't be a fool
I know I'll win, but that's cuz I'm fucking cool yeah
Why won't you play me in any video games?
I've never met a soul afraid of the things I do, at least not with a controller (oh no)
Silly Erin, this is a game
Silly Erin, have you seen my Pokémons yet?
Silly Erin, this mini-game
Doesn't count no, doesn't prove a damn thing no
I give you a controller because it is time to play the game
Would you please push some buttons?
I sit in the corner, bored out of my damn mind
Just play me some damn Pokémon!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is about m@ the c@'s emotional distress in overcoming his fear of Mudkips. "I've never met a soul afraid of the things I do, at least not with a controller (oh no)" is about his encounter with a little boy named Erin playing Pokemon Ruby. m@ decided he would battle him.

"I know I'll win, but that's cuz I'm fucking cool yeah" refers to his cockiness before the battle as well as "Silly Erin, this is a game, Silly Erin, have you seen my PokÃ©mons yet?". m@ ended up losing to the little kid's Mudkip due to his poorly trained Pokemon. "Doesn't count no, doesn't prove a damn thing no" refers to post-game frustration at losing.

"Just play me some damn Pokemon" is the last line of the song, indicating that he has now overcome his fear.
