Hit the Road, Cats

By Thorin N. Tatge

To the tune of “Hit The Road, Jack”, by Ray Charles.

Spoken: How are you gentlemen!! All your base are belong to us!!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base, our base, our base, our base!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base?

What you say!!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base, our base, our base, our base!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base?

Villain, oh villain, why you treat us so mean?

Ever since Operator turn on main screen

Been dreaming of your cyborg face

And how you took all our base!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base, our base, our base, our base!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base?

It's you, it's you, you no-good pig

I'm gonna make you take off every zig

If I hear on the intercom,

That somebody set up us the bomb!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base, our base, our base, our base!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base?

Whoa, Whoa, Zero Wing, better make your time,

For the old side-scroller paradigm

Is on the way to destruction as we go 3-D

And will soon be just a nostalgic memory

So if you want to be remembered later,

Don't blow your money on a good translator!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base, our base, our base, our base!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base?

What you say!!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base, our base, our base, our base!

Hit the road, Cats! And won't you give back our base? (Captain!!!)

Won't you give back our base (We get signal!)

Won't you give back our base (What happen?)

Won't you give back our base (What!)

Won't you give back our base (You know what you doing!)

Won't you give back our base (Move ‘zig’!)

Won't you give back our base (For great justice!)

Won't you give back our base (Ha ha ha ha!!!!)
