(*T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles)
On the half shell they're the heroes four
In this day and age who could ask for more
The crime wave is high with muggings 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
You better hurry up there's no time to waste
We need help like quick on the double
Have pity on the city 'cause man it's in trouble
We need heroes like the lone ranger
When tonto came pronto when there was danger
They didn't say we'd be there in half an hour
'Cause they displayed turtle power
(T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles
T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles)
Now our ace reporter was hot on the trail
Determined to put these crooks in jail
She spied the bad guys and saw what happened
But before she knew it she fell in a trap and got caught
Yes she was all alone with no friends and no phone
Now this was beyond her worst dreams
'Cause she was cornered by some wayward teens
Headed by shredder they were anythihg but good
Misguided unloved they called 'em the foot
They could terrorize and be angry youth
And they'd mug the people who needed proof
Then from out of the dark came an awesome sound
Shouted cowabunga as they hit the ground
From the field of weeds they rescued the flower
'Cause they possesed turtle power
(T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles
T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles)
When you stand for what you believe in
And find the strength to do what's right
That's turtle power
Instrumental
Heroe's on the half shell they're on a mission
When there's a battle got the enemy wishin'
That they stayed at home instead of fightin'
These ninja masters with moves like lightnin'
They were once normal but now they're mutants
Splinter's the teacher so they are the students
Leonardo Michaelangelo 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
Ninja's 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
Step 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
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 rights and your freedom to speak
Now the villain is chillin' so you make a 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 for 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
(T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles
T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles
T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles
T-u-r-t-l-e power, t-u-r-t-l-e power
T-u-r-t-l-e power, teenage mutant ninja turtles)
Power!!!!!!!!
