about

FivePlays's theme song, four-part vocals, a touch of Manhattan Transfer.

lyrics

[Verse]
We hang it high, we limbo low.
We play it cool, avoid the whole imbroglio.
We're Sunday punchin', poppin' fresh.
Kryptonian, we're cooking up some awesome sauce, oh yes.

We're swingin' for the fences now, we're singin' from the heart and we know how.

[Chorus]
When the road gets rough and rougher, then we drop it down.
And when life gets tough and tougher, we just take the whole thing downtown.
Big to-do? We're kung fu fightin' like a ninja battling Bruce Lee at his best.
We go for broke, it ain't no joke, we bring the hammer down, that's the way to make a good think better.

We ante up, we double down.
We stay in school, but spend the weekend way downtown.
We're newly born, we're old as dirt.
We're freshly shorn, and somethig of an extrovert.

This ain't no goat rodeo, no side show,
Front and center, dontcha know?

[Chorus]
