Lyrics:
High above the mucky-muck Castle made of cloud There sits Wonderboy Sitting oh-so-proudly.
Not much to say When you’re high above the mucky-muck… Yeaaauh! Yeuh! WonderBooyeee!
What is the secret of your powers?! WonderBoooyeeeee! Won’t you take me far away
from the mucky-muck, man? Well now it’s time for me to tell you about Young Nastyman
Who is the arch-rival and nemesis of Wonderboy With powers *comparable* to WONDERBOY!
What kind of powers? you may ask? Oh I dunno.. how about the power of flight, that do
anything for you? How about the power of telekenesis? …How about the power to move *you*?
History of Wonderboy and Young Nastyman… Rigga Goo-goo-, Rigga Riga Goo-goo
A secret to be told A gold chest- to be bold! Blasting forth with three-part harmony!
Yeah! Well Wonderboy and Young Nastyman joined forces And they formeda band
The likes of which have never been seen in Valhalla! And they call themselves
TEnacious D That’s right- ME! and KG! TenaAaaaaaaaAacious D! Come fly with me!
