We Didn’t Start Toaru (a fan parody of Billy Joel’s ‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’)

Summary:

I can't sing to save my life, but I can come up with lyrics (kinda). So you'll just have to sing this yourself. Have fun!

Notes:

After a year without uploading, the first thing I post is... this.

I'm so sorry, guys.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Index on the balcony, Stiyl Magnus, Kanzaki,

Memory doesn’t work that way, so long satellite.

Manga skipped you, that’s too bad, Touma’s got a dragon hand,

Sisters dying, Miko’s crying, third-string wins the fight.

 

Freaky Friday, Gabriel, Motoharu’s feeling swell,

Etzali, he’s got a crush, see you in a while.

Second chances all around, One-Way-Road, he’s turning round,

Sherry Cromwell, Kazakiri, I’ll fight to defend her smile!

 

[CHORUS]

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

No, we didn’t write it, but we always like it.

 

Railgun’s going back in time, let’s look at the Science side,

Uiharu, Kuroko and Saten’s here to stay.

Level Upper, AIM Burst, Level 5, do your worst,

Therestina Kihara Lifeline, what a name.

 

Touma’s gonna punch this nun, Awaki’s not having fun,

Orianna, Lorenzetti, falling from a plane.

Fleet of Ice, God’s Right Seat, Vento’s motive’s dumb and weak.

Accelerator’s back again, BLACK WINGS AWAKEN!

 

[CHORUS]

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

No we didn’t write it, but we always like it.

 

Endymion, who cares? Railgun takes top place here,

Sisters Arc gets done again, say hello to ITEM.

Grit your teeth, strongest one. Time for me to ring the gong.

Robot fighting overtime, the theme song’s done by FRIPSIDE!

 

War’s brewing, go to France, Terra does the flour dance,

GROUP, ITEM, SCHOOL, MEMBER, BLOCK, it’s party time.

Hamazura takes a stand, Shizuri loses a hand,

Dark Matter’s in the ground, Last Order says calm it down!

 

[CHORUS]

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

No we didn’t write it, but we always like it.

 

Dragons at the Daihasei, Gunha’s here to save the day!

Misaki, Junko, Aogami, Poker.

Frenda makes a new friend, right before she dies!

Giant golem final fight, Ryouko’s doppelganger dies,

Acqua verses everyone, Amakusa’s back plus one!

Let me here you say it now: “I’ll destroy that illusion!”

 

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

No, we didn’t write it, but we always like it.

 

Curtana, Carissa, Knight Leader kicks your ass,

Fiamma makes his play, Touma’s off to save the day.

Shiage/Rikou on the run, Aiwass loses to a gun,

Imagine Breaker, Holy Right, stage set for the final fight!

 

WORST steps onto the scene, black wings round three,

Star of Bethlehem arise, take this fight into the skies!

Arm cut off, take it back, White Wings replace the Black,

Aleister takes a walk, WHERE THE HECK IS SEASON FOUR!?

 

[CHORUS]

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

Though the road’s been long,

It will still go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on.

 

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

No, we didn’t write it, but we always like it.

 

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

No, we didn’t write it, but we always like it.

 

We didn’t start Toaru.

It was always crazy, though the road’s been shaky.

We didn’t start Toaru.

No, we didn’t write it, but we always like it.

Notes:

Hello all! Not Scot here, still alive and kicking and trying desperately to stay sane and cheerful.

I didn't manage to get very much done at all last year... writing-wise and otherwise... but this year is going to be my year, dammit! I have made myself a firm resolution to set aside time each weekend from now on to just write, and the fruits of that resolution will hopefully be ready to show off soon!

For now though, I do have some other stuff to do, so I shall take my leave.

Until next time,
Not Scot.

P.P.S: You may need to mangle the pronunciation of some parts to make it work.
