Roll Over
Kirby Krackle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I was out at the club with the music thumping
Oa, Thundera, Greymalkin Lane
As the bass bumped off the side of Snake Mountain
Jem on the stage with the Hologram Girls
Next up Allison Blair to light the
Start of a night at the bar at the end of the world
That my mind can't erase
There were ten in the bed and the Thundercat said
Roll Over, Roll Over
There were nine in the bed and the Amazon said
Roll Over, Roll Over
So we all rolled over and both fell out
Then they hopped in a jet with a growl and pout
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over ((Hey))
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over
Final call came there were shots all around
With the Gummiberry Juice and the Getafix potion
Feeling all right we broke in to the night
Dagger had an in on transportation
Where to go next? Some said ((Hawk Haven))
Some said ((Cybertron)), Some said ((Smurf Village))
But I knew in my head that those itty bitty beds wouldn't do
So we settled on my place
There were eight in the bed and the Tiger Shark said
Roll Over, Roll Over
There were seven in the bed and the Rescue Ranger said
Roll Over, Roll Over
So we all rolled over and both fell out
It was back to the sea and the trees for now
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over ((Hey))
Roll Over ((Hey)), Roll Over
//GMK The Great//
Not one, not two, but three Powerpuff Girls
We were in the club tossin' back Johnny Bravos
I danced off my pants with the fly Pepper Ann
Who kept massaging my hand I took her to my land
I'm like the Fred Flint, she's Diana Prince
I could be the Bruce Wayne crusading these chicks
And the fourth one, she looks like Daphne
The night's a bit young and my carpet's Shaggy
Morgendorf but she's so sarcastic
Askin' me really how's it shoot if it's plastic?
We can spend a day in Lawndale or set sail
How can I be the one in this fairy tale? Go!
There was six in the bed when the Fraggle girl said
Roll Over, Roll Over
There were five in the bed when the Cuckoo Girls said
Roll Over, Roll Over
And there were two in the bed When the Skrull girl said
Roll Over, Roll Over*
So we all rolled over and one was left
And we cuddled through the night with her head on my chest
I didn't even hear her leave because I was snorin'
Cuz she had to go to work 'cause it was Saturday Morn'
(*translated from Skrull)
The lyrics of Kirby Krackle's song Roll Over seemingly paint a picture of a wild night at a club for a group of friends who identify with various pop culture references. The singer starts by describing a night at the club with loud music and familiar names such as Oa, Thundera, and Greymalkin Lane that allude to the characters of Green Lantern, ThunderCats, and X-Men, respectively. The night seems to have gotten wilder as Jem and the Hologram Girls performed and Allison Blair, who is the real name of Marvel's Dazzler, lit up the stage, leaving an impression that the singer cannot erase.
The chorus of the song mentions a counting rhyme where various characters from cartoons and TV shows are in bed and keep rolling over until eventually, one is left. The singer and their friends seem to have taken this game to heart as they continue on their night, taking shots of Gummiberry Juice and Getafix potion, referencing characters from Disney's Adventures of the Gummi Bears and Asterix, respectively. The group seems to be on an adventure, looking for the next place to go, debating between places like Hawk Haven, Cybertron, and Smurf Village but ultimately settling on the singer's place.
The second part of the song introduces more characters such as the Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, Pepper Ann, Fred Flintstone, Wonder Woman's alter ego Diana Prince, and Bruce Wayne. The group seems to be dancing and having a good time, with the fourth girl resembling Daphne from Scooby-Doo. The song ends with the group singing the counting rhyme again, but this time the Skrull girl speaks in her native language, which is then translated.
Overall, Kirby Krackle's Roll Over is a fun and whimsical song that celebrates various pop culture references while also showcasing the joy of a night out with friends.

Well played sirs
@musicmeistergirl
Squirrel Girl. She's part of the Great Lakes Avengers, along with Big Bertha, Doorman,Mr.Immortal, Dinah Soar, Flatman, and Doorman. After naming difficulties with the Avengers, they changed their group name to the Great Lakes Champions. She talks to squirrels and has a tail. Not very tough looking, but whatever works, I guess...
@brigbjones
@WskerFTW this music is so bad ass!!!!
@MurdochCreates
@25bananaface I think it was Skrull girl, since she's the last one to say roll over
@aydr
Don't forget to mention that she has single-handedly defeated the Marvel Universe's strongest villains... she doesn't *look* tough, but she will fuck you up. And be super nice about it too.
@ComicBookHangover
