Sublime

who is this super hero? sarge? NO!
rosemary the telephone operator? No way man!
henry the mild mannered janitor?
hong kong phooey, the number one super guy.
hong kong phooey, quicker than the human eye.
oh, hes got style, a groovy smile, a bod that just wont stop.
when the going gets rough, hes super tough
with the hong kong phooey chop.
hong kong phooey, the number one super guy,
hong kong phooey, quicker than the human eye.
cho chicly lo chicly bow wow wow
dong diggity dong diggity dong dong dong
(pick it up pick it up pick it up)
Repeat
