[Hook 1] I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a lookie now At how we get it in, how we get it in We was underground, but now we in the wind I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a lookie now At how I get it done, how I get it done Bowser don't matter now, I'd rather get the funds [Verse 1] I bust bricks, I get coins I hit bricks with my fist, get points I don't miss, I just point And super mushrooms bust through my loins I get huge, superfly Snuka Koopa Troopa dudes Do it to an Oompa Loompa lookin' Goomba too Pair of Koopa Paratroopas they're assuming you Won't give a Troopa shell an ever-lovin' boot Bullet Bill, Buzzy Beetle, Wiggler and Boo Hammer Brother wanna see the ne'er-do-well in you And his brother want to see the Aaron Neville too But disappearing when he see the Hammer Brothers suit (whooooooa) I got the star power in the vocal booth I spit the hard fire, y'all on level 2 A slick car Earnhardt type'll never lose But Firestone car tires that embarrass you [Hook 1] I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a lookie now At how we get it in, how we get it in We was underground, but now we in the wind I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a lookie now At how I get it done, how I get it done Bowser don't matter now, I'd rather get the funds [Verse 2] I run quick, I jump high And sometimes I Tanuki in the sky I dress sick, and so fly I got the Princess blowing up my Skype (okey dokey) But she in another castle for the fourth time Level 8-4, Orc mine, you're mine Tell your dime, abort pork rinds I said no twice, how many more times Is she gonna wanna follow me in your life? She's singing to me awfully in your mic She clinging to me awkwardly in poor light Shimmy free and then I'm off into this warp pipe Warp to a cozy condo Where I hear Mr. MIDI bro Koji Kondo Ocarina warp whistle with Shinobi control The Rex Kwon Do with the Obi-Wan flow (let's-a go!) [Hook 2] I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a Koopaling And use a brother's wand, use a brother's wand Super mustache keep a super plumber strong I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a Power Pad And use it till you die, use it till you die Mario Bros. throw deuces in the sky [Verse 3] Slide down flagpole top like Geronimo Thick smoke, eyes look like a Monty Mole Piranha Plant bite like an animal Plus I got a 1-UP from Ms. McGonagall Bowser ain't the head of his classes Grab the axe, put the bread in the basket Man, Toad throwing vegetable patches I beat the wizard, put the Fred in the Savage Honestly, you're mocking me, aren't you? Mom, it's not a costume, it's a frog suit You guys don't even know what this would cost you I bartered for it in the castle of the mushrooms Man, that's why girls be duckin' Run away like somebody hit the B button And touch reset, cousin, when they see nothin' But a cheat sheet buster on a weak budget My Tanuki suit get me free loving What Peach doesn't know, homie, Peach shouldn't Luigi gone off, probably freakin' somethin' Between you and me, we ain't even brothers [Hook 2] I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a Koopaling And use a brother's wand, use a brother's wand Super mustache keep a super plumber strong I did it all for Tanuki, come on Tanuki, come on, so you can take a Power Pad And use it till you die, use it till you die Mario Bros. throw deuces in the sky (Game over)
