The song, as featured in the movie, is an exploration of classical guitar music in aid of proving Kyle Gass's musical prowess to Jack Black. In it, Gass plays sections from Bach's Bourrée in E minor (from Suite in E minor, BWV 996), Für Elise by Beethoven and Eine Kleine Nachtmusik (Serenade in G Major, K. 525: I. Allegro) by Mozart. Jack sings along harmoniously to Gass's guitar playing

Tenacious D Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me hear you applaud,
He is more than a man
He's a shiny golden god.
If you think its time to fucking rock,
And fucking roll, out of control
Well then you know you've got to rock the block,
Cause when you rule, you fucking school,
All of the fools, out of there jewels
Cause if you think it?s time to,
If you think it?s time to,
If you think it?s time to fucking rooooock.
He is going to kick your fucking ass,
And you know his name is Kyle Gass
Rocking and fucking rolling,
And fucking rocking, and fucking rolling
And fucking.....(JB SKIT)
The lyrics of Tenacious D's song Classico are an ode to a mythical figure, a god-like character who embodies the very essence of rock and roll. The opening lines of the song state that "he's the man" and the audience is encouraged to applaud this person. The lyrics then go on to describe this individual as "more than a man" and as a "shiny golden god." The use of the term "golden" is interesting as it brings to mind the idea of wealth and status, further emphasizing the otherworldly nature of this figure.
