They used the same song for the 2017 reboot, so that wouldn’t work. (Same lyrics, new recording.)
Ah, yes, but did they do the full 3 minute version that most 80s and 90s Disney cartoon series had?
It’s only two minutes, but it still has two verses, the bridge, and the key change for the last chorus. I think they upped the tempo in the new version, so they burn through the song faster.
Well, I can’t be mad about that.
Its actually crazy wholesome. Harkens back to the idealistic ideas of the ‘venture capitalist’. But in serious, its good.
I was struggling to remember the song and so clicked on your link. It’s a surprise to realize it’s the updated version. I was thinking for two minutes that I had a really terrible memory. Then I found the original and it’s entirely familiar.
Well what about tiny toon adventures, then? Or the Gummies Bears?
Thunder, thunder, thundercats [blank]
Please fill in the blank, sir.
HooOOOO!
Here’s your beer.
Hol up, did they mimic raising the sword up over their head? If not, you might want a second form of verification
I’d also accept “The Nations of the World” by Yakko Warner.
Singing that one from memory is quite a feat
Especially with all the countries that no longer exist!
That’s how you know they’re old.
Points at UK
“England”
He then also mentions Scotland separately.
Also the Gummy Bears theme.
Yeah but that one isn’t hard.
Now crazy frog would be impressive.

here in Duckburg
Race cars, lasers, aeroplanes
It’s a… duck blur?
Might solve a mystery,
Or rewrite history!
WOO HOOO
Duck tales has had a reboot that has the same theme tune. It’s no longer a useful form of age verification.
Fine. Tale Spin it is or would you like the Super Mario Bros Super Show theme?
Doyle was the high school star
Everybody thought he’d go real far But he didn’t take a thing from the classes he took Because he just wasn’t interested in his books
🎶I still say “holy cremola” when I’m shocked. People think it’s a Batman reference, but I learnt it from Doyle!
Dark Wing Duck!
Let’s get dangerous…
Sometimes, some crimes go slipping through the cracks, But these two gum shoes are picking up the slack…
THERE’S NO CASE TOO BIG NO CASE TOO SMALL WHEN YOU NEED HELP JUST CALL…
CH CH CHIP AND DALE’S RESCUE RANGERS (when there’s danger) You know it never fails, once they’re involves somehow whatevers wrong gets solved! CH CH CHIP AND DALE’S RESCUE RANGERS!!
Fine. Star Treck then?
- Which one.
- You can do returns.
Still not convinced? How about the Animaniacs theme song??
I’d do the “The Nations of the World” but I put my back out last time.
I put my back out getting out of bed.
I put your mom’s back out getting into bed.
I can almost remember and it burns to not quite have it.
It’s time for Animaniacs. And we’re zany to the max. So sit back and relax. You’ll laugh till you collapse. We’re Animaniacs.
Come join the Warner Brothers. And the Warner sister Dot. Just for fun we run around the Warner movie lot. They lock us in the tower Whenever we got caught But we break loose and then vamoose And now you know the plot.
We’re Animaniacs Dot is cute And Yakko yaks Wakko packs away the snacks While Bill Clinton plays the sax. We’re Animaniacs.
There’s Pinky and the Brain Who want to rule the universe Goodfeathers flock together Slappy whacks them with her purse. Buttons chases Mindy While Rita sings a verse The writers flipped We have no script Why bother to rehearse
We’re Animaniacs We have pay-or-play contracts We’re zany to the max There’s baloney in our pants We’re Animanie Totally Insaney [Add random rhyme: Pinkie and the Brainey] Animaniacs Those are the facts
This doesn’t work if you have ADHD:
Life is like a hurricane,
Here in, Duck-berg!
something something rhymes with cane,
It’s a, duck-blur!
Let’s solve a mystery,
or rewrite history!
Ducktales! Ooh ooAnd that’s all I’ve got.
Oh it’s worse not only do I have ADHD, back when I was an edgy teenager a friend of mine made up a racist version that’s insanely inappropiate and overly violent.
Now we weren’t racist or anything, it was the early 2000’s we were bored, we thought shock humor was funny, and we didn’t think anyone would think we were racist. Trump hadn’t normalized Nazism, so people just thought you were being ironic at best or they just didn’t give a shit at worst.
But I think of his racist version when I think of Ducktales.
No I’m not going to recite the lyrics for you, are you insane? It’s so bad I wouldn’t post it if this were 4chan.
I had a similar experience with the devil went down to Georgia. One of the first mp3s I ever had was a parody version about cannabis. I don’t know any of the lyrics to the original but I know that one by heart
JOHNNY ROLL A BALL OF HASH AND MAKE SURE ITS THE BOMB
CAUSE THE DEVILS GOT THE KIND OF STUFF THEY SMOKED IN VIETNAM
I think it’s called The Devil Went Down To Jamaica
Racists ruined racist jokes, just like they did with national flags.
When I was a kid, no one gave a shit if you had a Confederate Flag because people associated it with barbeques more than the Civil War. If people saw it on your law, they just assumed you liked Dukes of Hazzard.
Now it’s basically the lowercase version of the Nazi flag, because the Republicans wanted to use it as a dog whistle.
So thank you GOP for taking a once-harmless symbol of the South and turning it into everything New York accused it of being.
I knew it was all over when they waved the Confederate Flag on the lawn of the White House to protest Obama, no joke, the Tea Party did that shit. How could anyone interpret that as anything outside of “President is bad because he’s black”?
That’s what pisses me off the most really about Obama and Trump being called “Dividers”, it’s not hte same thing at all. The Right hated Obama because they’re racist, the Left hates Trump because HE’S racist.
Fuck! I was singing that song after reading the post and I sang that fucking line right before reading your comment and now I can’t remember that part of the fucking song!
The brain is fucking stupid.
Racecars, lasers, airplanes
Every day I’ve been making!
This is from memory, might be wrong:
D-D-Danger right behind you
There’s a stranger right behind you
Nothing to do but grab onto some Duck-tales!
Tales of Derring-Do bad and good luck tales!
Not pony tails or cotton tails, no, DUCK TALES!
How did Ducktales get so many bangers associated with it in the 90s?
i don’t know who worked on ducktales in particular but alan menken worked at disney and he wrote so many amazing songs. to be able to pop by his idunno, studio? office? whatever and ask for advice probably helped.
Hmm, how about the Samurai Pizza Cats or Fresh Prince theme?
Perhaps cheat codes for the original Doom, Duke Nukem 3D and StarCraft?
A Newgrounds username and password?
Recite the Konami code, how to use it in Contra, and what does it give you?
it gives you
Bruises on the arm from a sibling for wasting all the extra lives.
What an ICQ number? Especially one that was only 6 digits. I’m so old and even ICQ is young.
Usernames? Who needs those? Just map users to a number. Done!
Imagine somebody making a decision like that today.
showoff mine was 7.
Free money code for SimCity 2000. Also, The Sims. I’ve got those on speed dial despite their complete uselessness today except to prove I played those games years ago.
I think the Fresh Prince theme has become enough of a meme that many younger people know it, too.
No? Ducktales not good enough? Okay, then what about …
Heathcliff, Heathcliff, no one should terrorize their neighborhood. But Heathcliff just won’t be undone, playing pranks on every one.
How about Adventures of the Gummi Bears.
Gummy bears for me lol
The verse of the Gummy Bears theme tune is just the Soviet Union National Anthem speeded up. Same chord sequence.
If you put the Gummy Bears lyrics and the English translation of the Soviet Anthem next to each other, the two sets of lyrics are pretty much interchangeable.
Commie Bears.
Enjoy :)
Brilliant! Did you figure that out yourself?!
I think so, but it was a long time ago! I think I was trying to play the anthem on piano, and whilst working it out, suddenly thought “this is just the Gummy Bears theme tune slowed down”.
With some more talent, confidence and free time, I would have attempted to produce a recorded version in the last decade or so - but I never did, so if anyone else can, please do so. It’s probably worth quite a few “Internet points” :)
Pfft, I would have given the cashier a menu:
Rescue Rangers
TMNT theme
Darkwing Duck
TaleSpin
…woo hoo?
This is the song that never ends.
… Fuck you.
