lyrics

I often think about Lancelot Link
And if he were here today
Faced with all the troubles now
What would he and Mata say?
Now that A.P.E. has been disbanded
And C.H.U.M.P. has been contained
The Baron and his minions
Have long since been arraigned

Lance Link
Please come back
Our way of life’s under attack
I believe and trust in you
P.S., bring back Mata, too

All the trouble in the Middle East
For you should be routine
The world won’t soon forget
You took out Ali Assasine
As for all of our anthrax woes
I know you’ll know what to do
Even Dr. Strangemind
Couldn’t hold a match to you

Lance Link
Please come back
Our way of life’s under attack
I believe and trust in you
P.S., bring back Mata, too

We’ve all heard the news about Darwin
How Alzheimer’s took its toll
I’m sure he’d call you back to A.P.E.
If he were in control
Word has it wicked Wang Fu
Has turned his back on crime
Credo drives a Checker Cab
And he calls from time to time

Lance Link
Please come back
Our way of life’s under attack
I believe and trust in you
P.S., bring back Mata, too
