Saturday
Let's go
Wake up
Let's roll
TV
Cheerios
Remote control
Nine years old and I don't sleep in
I live for Fox Kids, it's time for X-Men
Big chair
Sit back
No Pants
Relax
Show break
Get snacks
Squeez-Its
Snack packs
Done it before and I'll do it again
Sit back and strap in, it's time for X-Men
Ever since I could get out of bed without a parent
I'd be up when it was seven, no alarm, it was inherent
Back when we only needed one remote control
Entire box of Cap'n Crunch inside a giant mixing bowl
Tale Spin, Power Ranger, Darkwing Duck
Never watched the girl shows, no way, those s**
And the ads all stuck, out to make that buck
Still want a Kawasaki Ninja and a Tonka Truck
Not too long with 10 o' clock rolls 'round
Best theme song starts and I hit the ground
Got my head in my hands, hand bones to the elbows
Then I don't hear a peep cause I'm deep into my shows
Taught diversity and it made ya think
Plus it's always so cool when the claws go Shink!
I pretend I got strength and my arms made of metal
Then I toss my little brother baby, Cannonball Special!
Mom and dad can just stay in bed cause
Beast is cool, wanna do just what he does
Hang upside down but then I just bust my head. ow!
I guess when X-men first debuted
it was Halloween morning '92
I was straight blown away by the beat of the song
that Mustin must've cleared for this track am I wrong?
Before puberty brought surprising hairs
I'd sit back and relax in my reclining chair
Rogue was beautiful, Storm was electric
Shaking from the sugar high like an apoplectic
I thought fourth grade wouldn't be so hard
If I just had that hologram Wolverine card,
Spider-man comics and MAD Magazine
Dave Berg, Don Martin, true artists, RIP
I learned a lot from that X-Men show
like how intolerance had to go
Magneto was a jerk, thanks to the Holocaust
Edutainment holler at the hollow boss
