Lyrics

The Mario Rap Part 1 (show intro)

We're the Mario Brothers, and plumbing's our game
We're not like the others who get all the fame
If your sink is in trouble, you can call us on the double
We're faster than the others, you'll be hooked on the brothers, uh!
H-hooked on the brothers
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)
Yo, you're in for a treat, so hang on to your seat
Get ready for adventure and remarkable feats
You'll meet Koopa, the Troopas, the Princess, and the others
Hangin' with the plumbers, you'll be hooked on the brothers!
To the bridge!
Uh, uh!
I said-a h-h-h-h-hooked on the brothers!
The brothers!
The brothers!

The Mario Rap Part 2 (animated episodes intro)

It's the Mario Brothers, and plumbing's the game
Found the secret warp zone while working on a drain
Lend the Princess a hand in the mushroom land
Join the action with the plumbers, you'll be hooked on the brothers!
Now...
Evil Koopa and his Troopas are up to misbehavin'
They kidnapped the Princess; Mushroom Land needs savin'
Abusin' and confusin' everybody he discovers
They can't help but be hooked on the brothers, uh!
