Lyrics & Translation

[English]

I'm talking really really quiet

everybody's done snow okay phase one we

break into the casino grab the Penguins

and get them to take us back to New York

and the monkey powered super plane jet

phase two we chew out the Penguins for

abandoning us in Africa

Jack phase three we apologize to the

Penguins for overly harsh chewing outing

but we've gotten our point across phase

four back to New York City John I like

it all right can you take these

ventilation ducts to the crawlspace

above the casino where we find the

Penguins you just need to figure out

which duct each of us should take

[Music]

okay now they're not gonna let animals

onto the casino floor so expect some

kind of disguise

oh that is one ugly mug ugly lady that

is road killing ugly that's not a lady

that's the cover side and that's not the

king of Versailles

that's the chimps chimps are like smoke

and where there's smoke there's fire

and by fire I mean the Penguins I say we

let it ride and we'll pick up the

hippies and fly back to New York in

style

can we buy an Airbus a380 solid gold

baby sir

solid gold plane wouldn't be able to fly

Wolski we'll be rich rules of physics

don't apply TAS let it ride right you

okay exactly two minutes 17 seconds the

lemurs will cut the power

no no okay no oh I drop down grab the

Penguins you crank me up and we are

don't have fingers Marty no oh do it

No so things that leader has to think of

I should go Billy - what plan update

because I'm the phase tracker the king

is looking at the head part of the Fate

it pays isn't something you own it's

something you're in that's it boom oh

did you Brett Hayes math anyway I voted

me cuz I'm the leader

No

maybe I should be in charge I am a

doctor oh no what can't we all be I'm

gonna leave

haha what's new pussycat

Marty what face are we at Oh three

apologize right oh man we are so sorry

well apology accepted let's roll Marty

we skip these two we didn't shoot them

out I'm a bit busy right now

[Music]
