Tendos, meet the Tendos
They're a martial artist fam-i-ly!
With the
Saotomes
They're as crazy as a kin can be!

Next time, maybe Ramna wins the fight!
Then that
pig will stay out for the night!
When you're
With the Tendos
Have a kawaiikunei time,
You'll have a gay time,
You'll have a gay old time!

(Baaa ba-da-da, BAAA ba-da-da, ba DADA, ba DADA, ba DADA, ba DADA)

You'll have a gay old time!
AKANE NO BAKAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Producer, having heard new theme song:  No nonononoo!  Can't have it.
Writer: Why not?

something more normal? How about Smith and Jones?
Writer: But...
Producer: And what's with this Ka-wa-e-cooney stuff? Is that some sort of code?
Writer: No, it's....
Producer: Nah, forget it.  It'll never make air.  America's not ready for a
TV show about having Gay times.
