Heroes in a penny farthing bicycle
Raphael:
The name is Raphael
And I’m the mouthy orphan, often mouthing off
Oh well, I guess the endorphins get me off
When something awful sets me off and I
Froth at the mouth
And scoff, fly off the handle
And I channel my animal wrath
Cause anger management was never my path
And I’m drawn to confrontation like a flame to a moth
And if the Foot Clan set’s foot in our turf
Should they be so clueless,
I’ll shank them with my two sais, til their shoe size is two less
I’ll stab ‘em and jab ‘em
I’ll shiv ‘em and give ‘em a need for a non-steroidal
I’m a Steam Age Mutant Ninja Turtle
Steam age mutant ninja turtles

Heroes in a gear-driven steam wagon
Donatello:
Oh, hello
Who’s that savvy fellow?
Why, it’s me!
I’m the thinker and the tinker Donatello
I know stuff
I like to blow stuff up
And when the go gets rough
I raise my Bo Staff up!
I’ve got the means to the nicest devices and machines for when our team is in a crisis
So pass me a slice while I dice up these contraptions
And if you can’t hear just read the captions
So please observe, I’m the urban perp who looks superb in the purple
I’m a Steam Age Mutant Ninja Turtle

Heroes in a trench coat and fascinator
Leonardo:
To make pizza, you need raw dough and tomato
To make a leader you need me to lead the squad in the grotto
Pardon, I’m the battle-hardened guardian katana desperado Leonardo
So domo arigato!
I’m in charge
I’m Leonar-ar-ardo
In a pinch, call Da Vinch.
That’s my mo-o-otto
I’m all bravado
The chief, the bossy prima donna
Wanna settle every beef
Cause I’m the Set-tl-er of Katana
I’m Splinter’s shoo-in for most prudent student
A Steam Age Ninja Turtle Mutant

Heroes in a clockwork unicycle
Michelangelo:
Nunckucka laka laka Nunckucka laka Nunckucka laka laka Nunchuck
I’m fifteen or sixteen
And this teen is pristine
Let’s paint the town red
Just like I painted the Sistine
I’m Michelangelo (Ho!)
Pass the mic to Mikey if you likey
It’s a 24-hour party in my psyche
Cowabunga, dudes.
I’ve got a hunger for fun
Like all you younger dudes
So it’s no wonder who’s the one
They put on the Underoos when all is said and done
That’s the clincher
I’m a Steam Age Mutant Turtle Ninja

Heroes in a coal-driven skateboard
Splinter:
If you’re a student of Budokon
You might know my pseudonym
Splinter, the wisest rat
Outside the Secret of NIMH
Since a rogue canister of radioactive mutagen
Got in the sewage then
Who’s the Wonderful Wizard of Ooze?
The sage
Is in the house
I’ve been waging war
While raising four
Teenagers in the house
Goodness me, golly gee,
I offer no apology
I’m a master of shinobi and
Scholar of herpetology and
N-I-N-J-A is my starting word in Wordle
Like a Steam Age Mutant Ninja Turtle

Heroes in a dirigible biplane
April:
Live in 3… 2…
For Channel 6 News, this is April O’Neil
What is mutagenic ooze?
We’ll reveal in the newsreel at noon
We’ll meet the heroes in the sewers
For exclusive interviews of them
So viewers stay tuned
Who’s that making a stir
At the top of her game?
A hurricane with an Irish surname
A Fox and a ginger nerd
In talks with the ninja turtles
My brass zephyr
In fast pursuit
For Channel 6 news, this is April O’Neil
Having a red letter day
In a yellow leather jumpsuit
Shredder:
Shredder is on the premises
Witness the genesis of a better nemesis
The party pooper
For the rodent and his stupid scruples
The supervillain super-killin’ his quadruple pupils
You’ll be under the foot of the Foot Clan like a Shih Tzu
When we blitz you
Then it hits you
That you never learned jack all about any tactical practical parts of ninjutsu
A permanent helmet cause I’m ugly
And bladed armour just to harm anyone who tries to hug me I’m
Criminally masterminding injuries and hurdles
For the Steam Age Mutant Ninja Turtles
Steam age mutant ninja turtles
Steam age mutant ninja turtles
Steam age mutant ninja turtles
Heroes in a zeppelin, zephyr, ornithopter, gyrocopter
Pizza:
Pizza here, beloved meal of millions
In particular these sewer-bound reptilians
I got pneumatic tubes and clockworks
Sprinkled with zinc dust
Which set me apart from your typical thin crust
Their address stumps the delivery guy
Whenever he try to deliver every pie
I espy that he’s flustered, but I must not speak
Although the rust in the gears in my crust might squeak
And say, “Check the manhole, or the airship
If you drop me and run, you’ll never get a fair tip.”

She loves the smell of a bookstore
After a heavy rain
That’s just terrific and oddly specific
And I can’t spell her middle name
We could rent skates and go halfsies
She’s got a widow’s peak
She wears sunny lines from the cracks in the blinds
And when it is my turn to speak
I freeze
She’s It and I freeze
Didn’t I, didn’t I freeze?
One day I wake up in Montreal
Stolen jewels down my shirt
There’s things you can’t check on a flight from Quebec
And the cavity searches might hurt
I am too bush-league for Interpol
Too small potates for the feds
So I’m just beat down by some local heat
With whom I find myself at loggerheads
And I freeze
They’re it and I freeze
Didn’t I, didn’t I freeze?
Freeze
You’re it and I freeze
Didn’t I, didn’t I freeze?
I was your five-year-old laptop
You were the child wonder
And I can’t wait ‘til we both lie in state
In the capitol rotunda
Freeze
You’re it and I freeze
Didn’t I, didn’t I freeze?

We had a month, I trust we’ve all read the assignment front to back back back
And as your host, I chose to focus close on post-exile Dostoevsky mostly
We should settle down and stay on track but
Jen’s got a second book group
I’m sorry, but that’s just absurd
Jen’s got a second book group
Where they talk facial scrubs and Oscar snubs
And never read a word
What can I do?
Wish I had a second book group too
Does Fyodor explore if self-determination is free will, Jill?
And speaking of, I think we’d love to hear how one could choose
Two-timing this sacred circle
For some rosé-fueled perverted thrill and
Jen’s got a second book group
I’m sorry, but that’s just absurd
Jen’s got a second book group
Where they talk CSAs and Chardonnays and never read a word
What can I do?
Wish I had a second book group too
Someone owes us an apology
Does your side fling even print out a color coded question key?
Jen’s got a second book group
It’s just too awful not to look
Jen’s got a second book group
And not to gossip but
It’s possible they never crack a book
What can I do?

I want a buddy to throw the ball
I got a ball and I want buddy to throw it
But I ain’t gonna let go it
Now I am one with the wind itself
I’m a blur of
Brown furry energy
Freedom incarnate
I’m untethered and wild-eyed
I’m wild-eyed and I’m untethered and wound up
A sugar rush from the ground up
Slave to the sway of the ancient urge
And the thrall of
The goading call of my antediluvian
Wolf brain
I do not run from or towards
But I must
Simply, I must
That is all, it was always thus
Someone’s got the zoomies
Someone’s got the zoomies
Someone’s got a bad bad bad case of the zoomies
You’re not busy, you’re not asleep
So don’t pretend you’re not a part of my orbit
You’re going to get your back door bit
Bounding around in a boundless joy
I’m a rambunctious nonpareil of esprit and monkeyshines
I want a buddy to tug the sock
Well, you can tug it but you’ll never out-tug me
You’re going to have just drug me
Guess you could GPS me
Yes, to see overlapping infinite infinity signs
I do not run from or towards
But I must
Simply, I must
That is all, it was always thus
Someone’s got the zoomies
Someone’s got the zoomies
Someone’s got a bad bad bad case of the zoomies
