I wanna be a skater,
I wanna be greater than the rest
I'm gonna ride, DO A TAILSLIDE!
I wanna be better than the best!
I'm gonna nail all the tricks,
All the ollies, pops and kick flips
Trust me sooner or later,
I'm gonna be a SKATER!
I'm fourteen, I'm ten and four,
I'm also double seven.
I'm riding on an elevator,
Straight to skater heaven!
And whenever I get into a fix,
In the middle of one of my brand-new tricks
I've got my lucky double,
To get me out of trouble...
Lucky double seven!
Maybe you've got a lucky double too!
Hello, I'm Two, and I can split into Ones!
Double one, double the fun!
I'm Four, and I'm double Two.
Whoa, two twos, I think we may need grippy shoes!
I'm six and I'm double three.
We'll both be saying look at me! Whee!
I'm eight, and I'm a four and a four.
Double four! Have you seen us before?
I'm ten and I'm double five.
Two big hands, now we can do our double five, hand jive!
I'm twelve, and I'm double six!
We don't need dice to do these tricks!
I'm extreme, Fourteen,
And I'm keen to show you, what my lucky double seven can do!
Lucky double seven!
Maybe you've got a lucky double too!
Double ones make two!
Two!
Double twos make four!
Four!
Double threes make six!

Double fours make eight!

Double fives make ten!

Double sixes make twelve!

Whoo, that's us!
Extreme fourteen!
I'm Fourteen, I'm...
TEN AND FOUR!
I'm also...
DOUBLE SEVEN!
I'm riding on an elevator,
Straight to skater heaven!
And whenever I get into a fix,
In the middle of one of my brand new tricks,
I've got my lucky double!
To get me out of trouble!
Lucky double seven!
Maybe you've got a lucky double too!
I wanna be a skater,
I wanna be greater than the rest
I'm gonna ride, DO A TAILSIDE!
I wanna be better than the best.
I'm gonna nail all the tricks,
all the ollies, pops and kickflips!
trust me sooner or later,
I'm gonna be a skater!
