Tenacious D – Tribute (Music Video Version) lyrics

(Intro Role Play)
JACK: This is it, Buddy

KYLE: What? This is the awesome recording studio where we're
gonna record our album?

JACK: It's a studio, it says it on the door! It's official studio!

KYLE: This is one of those lame karaoke things.

JACK: Okay, you wanna bail, go ahead! You wanna walk away from
your dreams, or do you wanna come in here with me like
the Tenacious D I KNOW and CHANGE ROCK HISTORY?

KYLE: Okay

JACK: God, Thank you!

JACK: See man, they got headphones and everything!

KYLE: Wow, Cool!

(Kyle starts to play!) Enjoy!!

(Song Lyrics)
This is the greatest and best song in the world.
Tribute.

A long time ago
Me and my brother Kyle, here...
We was hitchhiking down
A long and lonesome road.

All of a sudden
There shined a shiny demon
In the middle of the road

And he said:
"Play the best song in the world
Or I'll eat your soul" (Soul)

Well, me and Kyle
We looked at each other
And we each said:
"Okay."

And we played the first thing that came to our heads
Just so happened to be
The best song in the world
It was the best song in the world!

Look into my eyes and it's easy to see
One and one make two
Two and one make three
It was destiny

Once every hundred-thousand years or so
Where the sun doth shine and the moon doth glow
And the grass doth grow

Needless to say
The beast was stunned
Whip crack wit'ya swampy tail
And the beast was done.

He asked us:
"(snort) Be you angels?"
And we said:
"NAY! We are but men, ROCK!"

aaaah...etc.

This is not
The greatest song in the world, no.
This is just a tribute.
Couldn't remember
The greatest song in the world, no. (no!)
This is a tribute!!

Oh oh!!!

To the greatest song in the world oh lordy
It was the greatest song in the world allright
This is just the best motherfuckin song
To the greatest song in the world

[skattin]

Oh mama, Lucifer!
And the peculiar thing is this, my friend
The song we sang on that fateful night
it didn't actually sound anything like this song
This is just a tribute.
You've gotta believe me.
And I wish you were there.
It's just a matter of opinion

Ah, fuck!
Good god! God lovin'!
I'm so surprised
To find you can't stop em!
Rich motherfucker...
allright (X3)
