Bilingual
On the half shell, then the heroes fought
In this day and age who could ask for more
The crime wave is high with muggers mysterious
All police and detectives are furious
'Cause they can't find the source
Of this lethally evil force
This is serious, so give me a quarter
I was a witness, get me a reporter
Call April O'Neil in on this case
And you better hurry up, there's no time to waste
We need help right quick on the double
Have pity on the city, man, it's in trouble
We need heroes like the Lone Ranger
When Tonto came from him when there was danger
They didn't say we'd be there in half an hour
'Cause they displayed turtle power
ย
Now our ace reporter was hot on the trail
Determined to put these crooks in jail
She spied the bad guys and saw what had happened
But before she knew it, she fell in a trap
And got caught, yeah, she was all alone
With no friends and no phone
Now this was beyond her worst dream
'Cause she was caught in by some wayward teens
Headed by Shredder, they were anything but good
Misguided, unloved, they called them the Foot
They could terrorize and be angry youth
And they mugged the people who needed proof
Then out of the dark came an awesome sound
Shouted, "Cowabunga!" as they hit the ground
From the field of the weeds, the heroes rescued the flower
'Cause they possessed turtle power
ย
Power, when you stand for what you believe in
And find the strength to do what's right
That's turtle power
Turtles on a half shell, they're on a mission
When there's a battle, got the enemy wishing
That they stayed home instead of fighting
These ninja masters with moves like lightning
They were once normal, but now they're mutants
Splinter's the teacher, so they are the students
Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Donatello
Make up the team with one other fellow
Raphael, he's the leader of the group
Transformed from the norm by the nuclear goop
Pizza's the food that's sure to please
These ninjas are into pepperoni and cheese
Back to the story, it's not hard to find
Ninjas, not just of the body, but of the mind
Those were the words that the master instructed
But a letter from Shredder had Splinter abducted
That was the last straw, spring into action
Stepped on the Foot, now they're gonna lose traction
Now this is for real, so you fight for justice
Your shell is hard, so you shout, "They can't dust us"
Or fall off like some old coffee table
Since you've been born, you've been willing and able
To defeat the sneak, protect the weak
Fight for right and your freedom to speak
Now the villain is dealing, so you make your stand
Back to the wall, put your sword in your hand
Remember the words of your teacher, your master
Evil moves fast, but good moves faster than light
Shining from your illumination
Good versus evil equals confrontation
So when you're in trouble, don't give in and go sour
Try to rely on your turtle power
