Thought that this would just bore me out of my skull
I guess that plumber thought his racquet was dull
Because he summoned up a big hammer, he's whackin' it
Not only that, the ball's slathered with flames so hot
And when I thought that that would be the last of it, that was it
Then this pink-nosed doppelgänger gave him a shock
Could you get more popcorn for me (yeah)?

Bleachers are all packed now to shower this mad scene with cheers
They've spiced up this sport with some powerful magic right there (yeah)
Shy Guy's zappy as he's tribal dancin' with his spear
It's the Mario Tennis court, mixin' it up like yeah (yeah)

Koopa Troopas and Paratroopas can play
It's better than menacin' us mushroom folk all day
But it still looks a bit weird when King Bowser's face sets aflame
But then our Princess Peach wins the game, not a joke
Why can't she smack some balls when he's kidnappin' her again?
And Bowser takes his loss oddly fine, he just moans
Still postponin' his takeover (yeah)

All the stands are packed now, followin' this crazy scene with cheers
When it comes to sport ev'rybody's the fairest of fair (yeah)
Well, just partly, some will try to cheat at this game here
At the Mario Tennis court, inconsistent like yeah (yeah)

An ape, a chimp and a Wiggler (yeah)
A "Mushroom Kingdom's a trip" joke? I won't give (yeah)
I'm tryin' hard to not remark (yeah)
On how these court hazards should go (yeah)
Haha, Bowser in pain's way too good, though

Daisy put the smack down, now Bowser Jr.'s left in tears
It's the best damn sport that's not racin' karts, best to be fair (yeah)
Watch for Yoshi, he'll pop out that egg and kick your rear
It's the Mario Tennis court, servin' up fools like yeah (yeah)
Whackin' those balls like yeah (yeah)
Causin' some falls like yeah (yeah)
It's the Mario Tennis court, causin' some faults like yeah (yeah)
Hope it won't stall like yeah (yeah)
Pointless? That's false like yeah (yeah)
It's the Mario Tennis court, love to smack balls like yeah (yeah)
