Intro - Upstroke guitar, bouncy bass, horns blare]
[Cheerful]
ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!
CRAB WALK! PICK IT UP! PICK IT UP!
[Horns play melody, claws snapping in rhythm]
[Verse 1 - Bouncy, playful]
Born in the desert sands where the Monoblos used to roam
I found a skull and made it mine—now it's my forever home
My left claw's massive, like a shield, I block your every hit
My right claw snaps and grabs and slaps—you're dealin' with legit
I shoot water from my mouth, a jet stream to the face
I burrow underground and pop up right behind your safe space
They call me Daimyo, 大名, the master of the crabs
Don't let the bouncy rhythm fool you—I'll still make you dabs
[Pre-Chorus - Building]
SNAP! (LEFT!)
BLOCK! (RIGHT!)
BURROW! (DOWN!)
POP UP! (FIGHT!)
[Chorus - Full skank]
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! SHIELD CRAB SHUFFLE!
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! WATCH ME MOVE AND MUMBLE!
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! SKULL UPON MY BACK!
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! I'LL GIVE YOUR HUNTER HEART ATTACK!
(Pick it up!)
[Verse 2 - Still bouncy]
Pearls inside my shell, you know, from years of livin' right
You carve me up, you take my loot, you're out here every night
I'm not the toughest monster, not the scariest around
But hit me with a sonic bomb when I'm guardin'—watch me bound!
I'll dance around confused and dizzy, lose my cool for real
You'll get a second's opening—that's the Hermitaur deal
I'm Gen 2 classic, been around since the early days
Still here, still crabbin', still survivin' all the craze
[Pre-Chorus 2]
PEARLS! (SHINY!)
CLAWS! (SPINY!)
HUNTERS! (WHINY!)
DAIMYO! (I'M TINY!)
[Chorus]
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! SHIELD CRAB SHUFFLE!
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! WATCH ME MOVE AND MUMBLE!
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! SKULL UPON MY BACK!
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! I'LL GIVE YOUR HUNTER HEART ATTACK!
(Pick it up!)
[Bridge - Slower, sincere]
[Clean guitar, softer vocals]
They say I'm just a starter monster...
Just a crab with a skull and a dream...
But when that sonic bomb hits and I'm dancin'...
(Beat kicks back in)
I'M THE STAR OF THE DESERT SCENE!
[Saxophone Solo - Bouncy, joyful, crab-walk energy]
[Final Chorus - Max energy]
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! (DAIMYO!)
SHIELD CRAB SHUFFLE! (SHUFFLE!)
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! (DAIMYO!)
WATCH ME MOVE AND MUMBLE! (MUMBLE!)
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! (DAIMYO!)
SKULL UPON MY BACK! (ON MY BACK!)
DAIMYO HERMITAUR! (DAIMYO!)
I'LL GIVE YOUR HUNTER—
[Outro - Sudden stop, single claw snap]
[Spoken]
...heart attack.
[Beat]
But like... a bouncy one.
[Horn sting]
Ribbit? Wait, wrong monster.
[Claw snap. Silence.]
