Pac-Man vs Kirby Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The intro sets up an epic showdown in rap battle style between Kirby and Pac-Man. This playful intro invites listeners into an intense and humorous face-off between these two iconic gaming characters.

[Verso 1 (Pac-Man)]
Pac-Man starts off confidently, telling everyone to “insert a coin” as if he’s a game ready to be played, showing he’s still a big deal in gaming culture. He brags about his fame and impact, claiming even non-gamers know him, and says he’s ready to “devour” the beat—and Kirby along with it. Pac-Man pokes fun at Kirby, calling him a “cheap” mascot and a poor imitation, like a low-quality fan art of another famous character, Jigglypuff. He mocks Kirby’s “crazy dreams,” attributing them to Kirby’s fictional world, Dream Land, implying Kirby’s detached from reality. Pac-Man notes that they may share similarities, like appetite, but insists he’s fiercer and more dangerous, comparing himself to a violent, Tarantino-style Kirby. With a sense of superiority, Pac-Man reminds Kirby that he’s been around since the 80s and has “erased” some pink ghosts in his time, making him more seasoned and legendary.

[Verso 2 (Kirby)]
Kirby responds by mocking Pac-Man’s lack of skill, saying his “bad bars” reveal he left his talent with the missing “slice of pizza” Pac-Man resembles. Kirby claims he doesn’t need to try hard to outshine Pac-Man, declaring himself the top “rap star” of his world, Popstar, while calling Pac-Man an “old forgotten glory” that people now view as an urban legend. Kirby brags about having more fans, offering Pac-Man a “Last Dance,” while cleverly comparing himself to “2Pac-Man,” showing his lyrical edge. He ridicules Pac-Man’s simple game mechanics, saying it’s so basic it could’ve been a loading screen. Kirby then references his own famous appetite, claiming he could absorb Pac-Man’s quirks, which make him an easy parody target in geek culture. Kirby humorously warns that he doesn’t want to absorb Pac-Man’s “gift”—being mocked for things like “having hepatitis”—highlighting his superiority and distance from Pac-Man’s outdated image.

[Verso 3 (Pac-Man)]
Pac-Man strikes back by emphasizing his foundational role in gaming history, standing alongside giants like Tetris as a game that helped shape the industry. He boasts that his sounds are instantly recognizable worldwide, dropping a quick “waka waka” reference to his iconic in-game sound. He makes fun of Kirby’s “cute” face, saying he’ll cover it with a mask from Meta Knight, one of Kirby’s enemies, effectively telling Kirby “bye-bye.” Pac-Man ends by claiming the top spot, insisting that as an arcade original, Kirby will always be in second place.

[Verso 4 (Kirby)]
Kirby retorts by suggesting that Pac-Man may have been good in arcades, but as gaming technology evolved, Pac-Man’s popularity dropped. Kirby points out their similarities, with each having nemeses—his being King Dedede and Pac-Man’s being the shift to 3D graphics. Kirby taunts Pac-Man about his game’s age, hinting that Pac-Man would need “Power Pills” just to handle Ms. Pac-Man, his own in-game partner. Kirby wraps up by comparing Pac-Man’s struggles to his game’s mazes, where just when he thinks he’s made it out, he’s back at square one.

[Puente (Galactus)]
Galactus, the Marvel cosmic entity, enters, sensing the “altercation” and seeing Kirby and Pac-Man as potential snacks. As a powerful world-eater, Galactus views the two as insignificant “desserts” on his grand menu, asserting his superiority.

[Verso 5 (Galactus)]
Galactus takes the spotlight, explaining that his appetite is beyond compare, referencing Uatu (a cosmic Marvel character) as his witness. He laughs at the idea of Kirby and Pac-Man coming from video games, saying they’re more like his “cosmic eggs” than true threats. Addressing Pac-Man, he mocks his oversized head and imagines turning Pac-Man into a cherry, a minor snack. When he sees Kirby, Galactus dismisses him as another “surfer,” implying he’s trivial. Galactus then ridicules their challenge, saying they’re more like “two frustrated” heroes than the Fantastic Four. As a planet-devourer, he doesn’t believe they can beat him and claims he’ll consume their “energy” to fuel his power. Galactus adds that he existed before their gaming worlds, making them insignificant in his cosmic view. He declares that Pac-Man and Kirby are now his next meal, with their entire worlds becoming his snack, hinting they might be forgotten after he’s done with them.

[Outro]
The outro invites the listener to decide who won the battle between Pac-Man and Kirby. With some playful “biting” and a burp, the track ends humorously, wrapping up the “Epic Battles of Nerdy Rap” theme.
