lyrics

I was so deep inside a dull black dream,
I barely heard my bedroom door burst open.
They jumped around and bounced me out of bed;
two figures grabbed each of my hands and said, "Time to go!"

At first, I wrote it off as my alarm
to drag my chains into another county ...
but then, I saw the two-tailed fox and heard the hedgehog say,
"My boy, we've missed you so back in Mobius!"

Half a blink, and then I screamed with joy
to see the beauty of a floating island.
I nearly cried to see the old gold rings,
put on my sneakers and was nearly first to 100.

Knuckles showed up and we nearly flipped;
he smiled and said, "I don't feel too protective."
I'm happiest whenever I forget the way echidnas look and act
in the kingdom of debt, death, and sciences.

But then the robots nearly spoiled our fun --
metallic armadillos, wasps, piranhas.
But all we had to do was curl and jump,
and with our force, we brought the creatures back to their happiness.

Robotnik followed close behind,
his sickly smile inside an egg of terror,
but there ain't no robot that could beat our love.

Laughing and cheering,
speeding and singing, "Nothing can hurt me!"

But then a beep, and with a jolt,
I saw my wrists and heels were back in shackles.
The speeding creatures all had disappeared.
I wished my shackles would just turn to razors ...
but then I heard the hedgehog's voice:
"Don't worry! You've still got 100 rings left.
You'll always have them in your heart and head,
and we can see them through your eyes --
please don't let them tarnish!"

Laughing and cheering,
speeding and singing, "Nothing can hurt me!"
Hear me laughing, cheering, speeding, singing,
"Under a bushel? No! I'm gonna let 'em shine."
