The Lyrics
This was by far one of the hardest songs that I parodied in a long time especially since I wanted to make each "Radio On" something different.... If there was going to be an "Epic 40 Part 2" this would be on that list for sure!
Bash! Boom! Squeeze! Crash! Smash! Zip!
Roadrunner, Roadrunner
Catch this bastard with speedy powers
See him glide, He's too hard to stop
Like a torpedo's gone
In my maw want a slaughtered bird
But I'm crushed and this mountain hurts
When in pain I'll hold up a sign
There's a big word "OW" drawn
I'd like that roadrunner, yeah
Gulped "Uh-Oh" as I plummet like a big o' sack of bricks
I was racing down this road right after this chicken
Thanks to Acme and their weird weapons
I'll grab a drumstick
Explosive seeds won't make him scared
And accidentally my trap is stepped in
Soon I'll slay roadrunner punks! That would be nice!
I will shove down this massive rock
And I will take a bite, Howl!
With my rocket boots on, I will fetch him
Batman suit on, I will plow into a cliff's edge
Espresso gone, 50,000 cups I drained more
Fake tunnel drawn, I'm a master as a painter
Tornado's spun, I feel like some roadrunner... YUM!!!
He'll be hunted down with a rotten scowl
In Arizona where it's hot outside
Getting me thirsty, Thinking how he will be cooked
Going to roast him brown with glaze and chives
I don't need a reason to get him fried
Or maybe sloppy joe, Yum
As fast as light'ning, He is a Speed Racer
Like a spark
Cause in my clutch there's a magnet held
He's in a rush, I'm pulled behind
From those magnetic seeds devoured
You've got my TV Show on
Roadrunner, Roadrunner
My longbow's drawn till I'm blasted as the archer
More ammo's bought you know I work for that Acme shop*
Commando job, I'm here to make a bird lollipop
A gyro lunch and he's tasting much better than
All those sheep that my clone wants**
I won't choke swan but I'll make some risotto, yum
He won't hold up, I want to clutch that blue rocket bird
This bozo runs, A breakneck dove is seen as a blur
This lasso's on I'm being tugged, I'm being tugged into the
Railroad car, I'm a plower, It's so manic!
The lotto's won, Got some great gems
More cargo comes, Lots of weapons
This gizmo's nuts still I cannot make him slower!
My turbo's on missile sneakers till I'm powder
They'll explode strong since it's treason to fill my insides
My torso's wronged since I am squashed under these rocks, under these rocks
Stubbed my toe raw when after, when after, when after
Fowl morons, I'll get him, I'll get him, I'll get him, I'll get
I'll judo chop this pest
This can't go on...
Roadrunner, Roadrunner

* Explained in further detail in the movie "Looney Tunes Back In Action", ** There's no relation between Wiley E Coyote and Ralph E Wolf but they look pretty much identical except for Ralph's red nose.

I thought this would be about the car, but still good- 555! Hated how the coyote always got shafted though. Should have bought from Krupp instead of Acme!
In the Russian Looney Tunes Rayli Koyot beats roadrunner with polonium Po-10 in birdseed courtesy of KGB ;-)
The coyote never get a break, even if he speeds at 555 mph he'd still fail to catch the reality warping bird somehow.
Kudos for not going with a (comparatively) easy pick like most of us. I know the subject but had a hard time manage to visualize every line fast enough before the next came on, guess I'm getting old and slow, glad I don't have to try to outrun Coyote.
The coyote was my hero growing up. Always wanted an episode where he caught the roadrunner.
(Artistry) Surprisingly badass theme song for the perpetual butt monkey that is Wile E. Coyote. Great parody here, 555!
Never heard the OS, but this is a pretty rocking tune. I think the lovable loser finally gets a theme to do this rivalry justice. Well done!
(Artistry) Road Runner one of my top favorite Loony Tunes (Taz is #1). And I loved the show. This OS is a mountain of itself and you pulled it off well. It was hard to follow at times, leaving me having to catch up (much like Wile E. in the cartoon), while hard, added a special enjoyment for me because it matched Wile E.'s perspective. Solid work here! 555 Beep-beeps!
