He feels all right every day and all night,
Nine o’clock, and Doctor Eggman wants a fight,
That’s just so wrong, but it’s nothin’ new,
Brings Tails on, knowin’ what they gotta do.
They got to…

Get up,
Sonic’s gonna lay down lots of heat!
Get down,
Or the world is gonna face defeat!
You just can’t fall behind in Sonic Rock City!
Get up,
Sonic’s gonna lay down lots of heat!
Get down,
Or the world is gonna face defeat!

With his gait, he liberates!
Ten o’clock, and he’s already saved Green Hill Zone!
He don’t think; he just goes!
Goes so far, and he puts on such a dang good show!

Get up,
Sonic’s gonna lay down lots of heat!
Get down,
Or the world is gonna face defeat!

[guitar solo]

Movin’ past 695,
Hits top speed, and he insists that you’re too slow!
He feels so good, he’s so alive,
See ‘em chant from Hong Kong to Chicago!
They go:

Get up,
Sonic’s gonna lay down lots of heat!
Get down,
Or the world is gonna face defeat!

[another guitar solo]

You just can’t fall behind in Sonic Rock City!

Twelve o’clock, and he still rocks!
There’s the Doc ahead, Eggmobile on the fly,
“No!” Doc says, “this cannot be!
I planned this right, and I hate that hedgehog guy!
WHY!?”

Get up,
Sonic’s gonna lay down lots of heat!
Get down…

Get up,
Sonic’s gonna lay down lots of heat!
Get down!
