In addition, Cafiero has assembled a posse of colossal visual artists to complete an over-the-top, high-energy-bursting-with-color package, including original Topps bubble-gum card guru John Pound (Wacky Packs artist and creator of the Garbage Pail Kids); Space Monkeys designer and urban legend Dalek; Batman and Justice League wizard Butch Lukic; and Tragnark.
CAFIERO: “This is a combination of everything that has inspired me, of everything that I am. Japanese anime and toys, my love of punk rock and pop culture, and especially the defining 1970s bands of New York. More than anything, my heroes, The Ramones, taught me that punk rock is fun."
Where's The Cap'n
Osaka Popstar & the American Legends of Punk Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I felt really beat stars spinned through my head
I knew what to do to get outta this rut
Toss down some of my Cap'n Crunch
Opened the cabinet where it belonged
I looked at the box and Cap'n Crunch was gone
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n - gone?
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n - gone?
Well I can't eat it now with out the Cap'n around
What will we do, he must be found!
'Cause Lucky Charms they don't do the trick
And Wheaties don't pack a sugar fix
Quisp left the galaxy
Quake got his way
All past the expiration date
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n - gone?
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n - gone?
They said he'd gone away to sea
And now there's a big mystery
They told me to solve the clues
I was too depressed I had the Crunchberry blues
Then he came back one day
They said he'd been at the Milky Way
But i don't believe all the spoon-fed lies
Conspiracies, pay-offs or cereal-spies don't feel right
Who could it have been
The silly Trix rabbit trying to work his way in
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n - gone?
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n
Where's the Cap'n - gone?
