Versuri Team StarKid – Kick It up a Notch lyrics

[PINCER]
Scales and exoskeletons
Why, they pale in comparison
To a body that is covered up by skin

We get rid of those antennae
Give you hair, and clothes and then I
Add two eyes and a nose and my boy, that is only
The beginning…

[BUG, spoken]
Hmm… what are you saying?

[PINCER, spoken]
You become a Starship Ranger

[BUG, spoken]
Me?

[PINCER, spoken]
Now listen to me, my confused little friend. We are friends, after all. I used to have my fair share of doubts and fears and well, they quite literally almost ate me alive. But no! I took charge! I pushed it to the limit! So you gotta be strong. Be tough! To coin a phrase, be a man.

[PINCER]
You’ve gotta kick it up a notch
If you’re ever gonna reach your goal
You can’t sit around and watch
Your destiny is in your control
Go ahead and kick it up a notch
If your life is at a level too low
There’s no attempt that you can botch
When all you gotta do is just give it a go
But then again what do I know?

What I see right there
Is a prisoner
Who’s sittin’ on top of the key
So kick it up a notch
If you ever wanna be free

[BUG, spoken]
Wow. A real Starship Ranger. That would be the coolest thing in the whole world!

[PINCER, spoken]
It would, wouldn’t it? A bug in a human body. You could be the link between our race and theirs.

[BUG, spoken]
Well, do I even have what it takes-

[PINCER]
Shh…

[MOSQUITO BROS]
All you gotta do is
Kick it up a notch
To dig yourself outta this hole
You wanna have the things they got?
Then you gotta give that dice a roll

[NEATO]
Kid, kick it up a notch
What’s the point of less when there is more?

[SWEETHEART]
Have a cigar

[VEETO]
A glass of scotch
When opportunity knocks at your door
You let him in and then ya

[MOSQUITO BROS]
Settle the score

[PINCER]
Life is short so
Before it’s over
Take a chance and think it through
You’d better kick it up a notch
It’s the human thing to do

It’s a big, big, universe
So many dimensions
And unanswered questions
Not to mention: life
What an invention, ife
There’s no choice involved in what you are given
One mind, one voice, one body to live in

But…
You wanna be a Starship Ranger
Or is that a dream that you forgot?
You wanna be a Starship Ranger?
Well, this might be your one and only shot!

[PINCER, spoken]
So here’s the choice, Bug. You could go on leading your meaningless existence or you could take everything you’ve ever wanted. All I ask in return is that you befriend the humans and bring them to me.
Well, Bug? Whaddaya say?

[BUG]
I… I…
I think I’ll kick it up a notch
I don’t care about the queen or the hive

[PINCER, spoken]
That’s the spirit! Kick ‘em all straight in the crotch! How about that?

[PINCER & BUG, sung]
Who are they to deprive us of wanting to-

[PINCER (BUG)]
Kick it up a notch (I’m gonna be a Starship Ranger!)
Never give yourself a reason to doubt
You gotta strike it while it’s hot (I’m gonna be a Starship Ranger!)
‘Cause that’s what livin’s all about
My dear Bug, it’s time the lights went out! (I’m gonna be a Starship Ranger!)

[BUG, spoken]
Well, see you on the other side, Pincer. I love you.

[PINCER, spoken]
Oh, oh uhh… I love you too, Bug.
Heh heh heh heh…

[VEETO, spoken]
I know we’re suckers, but that guy’s a sucker!

[PINCER]
Yes, yes… what a dumbass! Break out the good china, boys. Tonight we dine again!
Kick it up a notch
Oh, my plan is all about to unfold
Let’s put a twist into this plot
Bug, go forth, do everything that I’ve told ya

[PINCER & MOSQUITO BROS]
When we, kick it up a notch

[MOSQUITO BROS]
It’s blood for us!

[PINCER]
And brains for me!
I’m gonna let this little snot
Be everything he’s wanted to be
But only because I know he’ll actually
Feed my hunger for flesh
I want it warm and fresh

[PINCER & MOSQUITO BROS]
Oh, Pincer you’re in for a treat!

[PINCER]
Let’s kick it up a notch

[MOSQUITO BROS]
Kick it up a notch

[PINCER]
So at last
I’ll have human meat!
