1. WONDERBOY

High above the mucky-muck, castle made of clouds,
There sits Wonderboy, sitting oh so proudly,
Not much to say when you're high above the mucky-muck,
Yeah, yeah,

Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?,
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck, man?

Now it's time for me to tell you about Young Nastyman,
Archrival and nemesis of Wonderboy,
With powers comparable to Wonderboy,
What powers you ask?,
I dunno how 'bout the power of flight?,
That do anything for ya?,
That's levitation, holmes,
How 'bout the power to kill a yak from 200 yards away...,
With mind bullets?,
That's telekinesis Kyle,
How 'bout the power... to move you?,

History of Wonderboy and Young Nastyman,
Riggah-goo-goo, riggah-goo-goo,
A secret to be told, a gold chest to be bold,
And blasting forth with three-part harmony, yeow,

Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?,
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck, man?,

Well, Wonderboy and Young Nastyman joined forces,
They formed a band the likes of which have never been seen,
And they called themselves Tenacious D,
That's right, Me... and KG,

"That's me"

We're now Tenacious D,
Come fly with me, fly,

(Guitar Solo)

Wonderboy, what is the secret of your power?
Wonderboy, won't you take me far away from the mucky-muck, man?,

Oh,
Take my hand,
Young Nastyman, and we'll fly,
Bring out your broadsword,
There's the hydra,
Slice his throat,
And grab his scroat,

You take the high road,
I'll take the low,
There, the crevasse,
Fill it with your mighty juice,

2. COSMIC SHAME

So, um, if I was just gonna say one thing to y'all tonight
I'd say, set the artist free
I'm talking about this artist in here, set it free
I'm saying, quit your day job

Now, I know a lot of you people here, you're saying,
I can't quit my day job, I've got kids to feed, Jack, quit your day job
Focus on your craft, one time, before it's all over
You've died, you've squandered it, you fuckin' robots

Now after a couple years of you focusing earnestly on your craft
K G and I will swoop in, we will check out your progress
And we will encourage you to continue or we will say stop
And then seriously, you must stop
Or penalties will be created and enforced

'Cause listen this is the problem
Sometimes you follow your heart
Sometimes your heart cuts a fart
That's the cosmic shame, that's the cosmic shame

And I know what you are saying now
What makes you guys so fucking good?
I don't fuckin' know and I don't like it
I stay up going fuck, why can't everybody fuckin' have it?

'Cause this is the thing
Some people learn it on the streets
Some people learn it in the schools
Me and K G, we were fucking born with it, homes

Check it out
That shit came off the top of my fuckin' head y'all
Oh God, why? It's a cosmic shame!


3. KYLE QUIT THE BAND (DEMO)

Last week, Kyle quit the band,
Now we're back together, uh.
Misunderstanding, didn't understand.
It doesn't matter, now we're back together again.
A-la la la la la.
Couldn't split up Kato and Nash. (that's true)
Couldn't split up Tango and Cash.
That's also true!
This is our song of exultant joy because
We only came to kick some ass.
Rock the fuckin' house and kick some ass.
What we gonna do with all the cash?
Smoke hash, and then we thrash.
We'll throw a big ol' bash y'all.
And everyone is invited to the bash.
And everyone you're all invited to the bash!
C'mon Kyle, one time c'mon!
(Skat)
