<<  O.K. Trivia time here for the truely bored.  Does anyone *know* the 

 lyrics to "Speedracer?"  This inquiring mind is stumbling over that 

 one.  Sort of like "...he's really tearing up the track (something, 

 something, something, something, umm, umm, humm, hummm,) ...just like 

 he's never coming back, Go Speedracer, Go Speedracer, Go Speedracerrrr 

 Gooooo!  Spoze we need a sound file for this one, err sompthin?

Check out the Speed Racer page at:

http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~markowsk/anime/speed/oldIndex.html



The english version of the theme song goes:



Here he comes, here comes Speed Racer

      He's a demon on wheels

      He's a demon and he's gonna be chasing after someone

      He's gaining on you so you better look alive

      He's busy revving up the powerful Mach 5

      And when the odds are against him and there's daaangerous work to do

      You bet your life Speed Racer will see it through      

Go Speed Racer

      Go Speed Racer

      Go Speed Racer go      

He's up and flying as he guns the car around the track

      He's jamming down the pedal like he's never coming back

      Adventure's waiting just aheeeeeeeeaaaaad      

Go Speed Racer

      Go Speed Racer

      Go Speed Racer Go!



The web page has an explaination of what each of the buttons on the mach 5's

steering wheel does, and even the theme song sound file on-line. Download it

and sing along.....
