Keeper of the Seven Stars

Lyrics

(Intro: Fast, galloping drum beat with a soaring synthesizer melody that sounds like a 16-bit herald trumpet)
(Verse 1)
In the shadow of the mountain, where the lava meets the sky
A tiny scout in vest of blue, with fire in his eye!
The bridge is gone, the castle falls, the Princess is not here
But I will stand with spores of steel and conquer every fear!
I’ve told the brothers once before, I’ll tell them once again
The quest is long, the road is hard, but we will meet the end!
(Pre-Chorus)
My cap is spotted red and white!
I’m screaming through the dead of night!
(Chorus)
I AM THE KEEPER OF THE KEY!
A FUNGAL FORCE OF DESTINY!
Though I am small, my voice is loud
I’ll lift the curse and pierce the cloud!
THANK YOU MARIO, BUT HEAR MY CRY—
UNDER THE MUSHROOM MOON, WE RIDE OR DIE!
(Bridge - Heavy double-kick pedals and a shredding guitar solo)
(Spoken in a high-pitched, raspy Toad voice)
“Bup! Bup! The castle is in another world! Forward, to the final stage!”
(Verse 2)
The Koopa King may roar in vain, his hammers fly in vain
I’ll sprint across the crumbling blocks through fire and through rain!
I’ve got the Star, I’ve got the Speed, the power is within
One jump to rule the kingdom, let the symphony begin!
(Chorus)
I AM THE KEEPER OF THE KEY!
A FUNGAL FORCE OF DESTINY!
Though I am small, my voice is loud
I’ll lift the curse and pierce the cloud!
THANK YOU MARIO, BUT HEAR MY CRY—
UNDER THE MUSHROOM MOON, WE RIDE OR DIE!
(Outro)
Ride or die!
(High-pitched, glass-shattering scream)
BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUP!
