<ab>(Hold it, hold up everyone)
(Are you ready for a sing-along?)
(Slowpoke in a reggae, reggae style)
(Poké-, Poké-, Poké-, Pokémon)
(Come in!)
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Every night, you're the one, dreams of waking with the sun
But you sleep in 'til noon
(Slowpoke)
Your pink hue is your color, through and through
I can see it's the real you
(Slowpoke)
Your big mouth like a supermarket door
Open seven/twenty-four
(Slowpoke)
Your sweet tail sap is a yummy yummy snack
We're hungry and we want more
(Slowpoke)
You're so slow, that your picture never blurs
The speedometer concurs
(Slowpoke)
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Dude, what's your deal, Slowpoke?
Lose your tail, that's all right; it'll grow back someday
That's really cool
(Slowpoke)
Dopey Pokémon, the they settled on
Too bad for you
(Slowpoke)
What word starts with "S" and ends with letter "E"?
It's obviously...
(Sunstroke)
You fish with your tail but you're too slow when they bite
And so they swim out of sight
(Slowpoke)
Your slow-motion roll has got a lot of soul
It's your cruise control
(Slowpoke!)
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
You a single time, down comes the rain sublime
If the famous legend is true
(Slowpoke)
But you've been yawning all day long and the blue skies aren't gone
You've got some explaining to do
(Slowpoke)
A bites your tail and then you become a 
That's a dopey evolution
(Slowpoke)
Everywhere you go there are Slowpoke passing through
Maybe there's one right behind you
(Slowpoke)
Plodding, poky, sluggish, tardy, so late you're early
(Slowpoke)
Slow slow slow
Dude, what's your deal, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
A great big Berry fell, bonked you on the head
But you feel no pain
(Slowpoke)
Your ears curl in—there's a reason, you said
What was it again?
(Slowpoke)
You just said "SLO"; did you feel that Berry only just now?
You're really somethin'
(Slowpoke)
Someday you'll be Slowbro, or maybe even 
Or you'll just keep bein'
(Slowpoke)
Stand in a ring, bite your buddy's tail for lunch
What a happy looking bunch
Slowpoke!
Slow slow slow
Ah-oo what's your story, Slowpoke?
Slow slow slow

Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, Slowpoke?
Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, Slowpoke?
Dreaming of getting up together with the morning sun
Sleeping until noon
Slowpoke
Pink skin's not too cooked
You have always been a
Slowpoke
Your huge mouth, like a convenience store
It is open anytime
Slowpoke
A sweet tail, sometimes a child's snack
Instead of the usual
Slowpoke
There's no blurry photos with your sluggish motion
Are you proud of that?
Slowpoke
Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, Slowpoke?
Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, Slowpoke?
If your tail is removed, since it'll grow back
Don't worry
Slowpoke
Who gave you the classification
Stupid Pokémon
Slowpoke
It starts with "ya", it ends with "n"
Three characters, it is
KettleThe Japanese word for kettle, ヤカン yakan, starts with ヤ ya, ends with ン n, and is three characters, like the Japanese name of Slowpoke, ヤドン Yadon.
When fishing with the tail, a catch isn't noticed 
And without noticing they even escaped
Slowpoke
Playing shiritori with Slowpoke's name
Isn't recommended
Slowpoke is a Japanese word game where players say a word which begins with the final kana of the previous word. Players who say a word that ends with ン n, like the Japanese name of Slowpoke, ヤドン Yadon, lose as no Japanese words begin with it.
Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, Slowpoke?
Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, Slowpoke?
With one yawn, sending down rain for the people
A legend of praying for rain
Slowpoke
But from a while ago without a single cloud
What happened to the legend?
Slowpoke
When Shellder bites its tail, Slowbro
Also a stupid evolution
Slowpoke
Slowpoke are anywhere in the world
Even behind you
Slowpoke
Yamakake, moon-viewing, tempura, gomoku, exotic curry
UdonYamakake, moon-viewing, tempura, gomoku, and exotic curry are types of , a type of Japanese noodle. Both ウドン udon and ヤドン Yadon end in ドン don.
Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, udon?
Slow slow a-slow
What's going on, Slowpoke?
A large Berry fell on your head
But it doesn't hurt
Slowpoke
Your ears suddenly curl up
Why is that so?
Slowpoke
Suddenly going "slow", does the Berry from before
only hurt right about now?
Slowpoke
Someday you will be Slowbro or Slowking
Or not evolve at all
Slowpoke
With everyone in a circle, and additionally a tail
You are happy
Slowpoke
Slow slow a-slow
Slow slow a-slow
Slow slow a-slow
Slowpoke</ab>''
