defrogBanäna Deäthmüffins are back.
You have missed us. That’s all right, you cannot help it. You love us.
And so we bring you new music.
And not just any new music – but the brand-new theme song for Japanese superhero Ultraman!
It’s not official, of course. Like that matters.
=====================
LYRICS
Roll call:
Tiga
Dyna
Gaia
Mebiusu
Seven
Jack
Ace
Urutoraman!
V1
Power Rangers, go to hell!
He’s the ultimate hero, and he does it well
He can fight and run and fly so fast
He don’t take names but he sure kicks ass
BRIDGE
He wears a red suit
but he ain’t Santa
You can’t mistake him
for a big banana
CHORUS
He’s not American
He’s a Salt-egg Superman
Totally made in Japan
He’s a Salt-egg Superman
He’s not a teenage heart throb
and he does a better job
V2
Bullets have no effect when they strike him
Got seven brothers what look just like him
His head is shaped like a salted egg
Whatever you do, don’t pull his leg!
BRIDGE
He ain’t no lizard
he ain’t no turtle
He’s an Ultraman
He don’t wear no girdle
CHORUS
He’s not American
He’s a Salt-egg Superman
When you gotta save Japan
Call on Salt-egg Superman
He’s not a teenage heart throb
and he does a better job – GO!
[break]
CHORUS
He’s not American
He’s a Salt-egg Superman
He’s doing the best he can
for a Salt-egg Superman
He’s not a teenage heart throb
and he does it better, better –
NO, NO POWER RANGERS
NO MORE POWER RANGERS
F*** YOU POWER RANGERS
GO GO GO GO!

==================================
FUN FACT: The term “Salt Egg Superman” is the English translation of the Chinese name for Ultraman. It’s a reference to the shape of his head, apparently.
PRODUCTION NOTE: The lyrics are actually pretty old – they were written back when Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers were still a hit in the US. At the time, some friends and I liked the MMPR action scenes, but hated the beautiful trendy American date-bait teenagers cast for the American version. It wasn’t until later that I found out that the Japanese version featured beautiful trendy Japanese date-bait teenagers.
Oh well.
When you gotta save Japan,
