[Verse 1] Once, I soared through the sky, A hero with a gleam in my eye. Now I’m stuck here flipping fries, Dreaming of my glory days gone by. [Pre-Chorus] The world I saved forgot my name, My friends moved on; it’s such a shame. And now I stand in grease and shame, Wearing a visor, playing this game. [Chorus] All for nothing, that’s what it feels, Trading my dreams for fast food deals. A Quirkless man, a broken toy, Just call me “Deku,” your Broccoli Boy. [Verse 2] The fryer pops, the grease it burns, Another order, the wheel it turns. I gave my all, my body, my soul, Now I’m just a cog in a lifeless role. [Pre-Chorus] The 1-A chat is silent still, I stare at my phone and drink to kill, This hollow ache, this empty chill, The void inside I cannot fill. [Chorus] All for nothing, the price I paid, A hero’s light begins to fade. A dream of hope, now just a ploy, The bitter tale of Broccoli Boy. [Bridge] Ochako, do you remember me? The boy who dreamed so endlessly? But now you’re gone, and here I stay, Lost in the grease of another day. Oh, someone please, hear my despair, My cape’s in the closet, collecting dust there. [Chorus] All for nothing, the path I chose, Trading my fists for deep-fried woes. A hero’s heart turned into a ploy, Forever cursed as Broccoli Boy. [Outro] So here I stand, my dreams betrayed, A hero’s spark that’s long decayed. Flip the burgers, sweep the floor, A shadow of the man I was before. All for nothing, the world’s moved on… And I’m just a fry cook, my glory gone.
