    G                   C
Eighteen-man steel cage free-for-all
G                   C                 G
Through the noise I hear you call for help
C            G
You can't protect yourself
G             C
Frog mask and yellow cape
G            C
So desperate to escape
  G       C    G
I came to you, hands wrapped in adhesive tape
Am                    Bm        Em
That was when we were young and green
Am             Bm           Em
In the dawning hours of our team

Some things you will remember
G                C
Some things stay sweet forever

Seen you backstage once or twice
Animal gimmick pops real nice 
Elbows sweep and tiger dance
Little extra fighter's chance 
"Hold on", I cried, "I'll be right there"
Pull your mask down through your hair
They won't see you
Not until you want them to
That was when we were green and young
Battle cry rising from your tongue

Some things you will remember
Some things stay sweet forever
