[Verse 1] When The Pick of Destiny was released, it was a bomb And all the critics said that the D was done The sun had set, and the chapter had closed But, one thing no one thought about was the D would rise again [Hook 1] Just like the phoenix We'll f**in' rise again That's right, the phoenix We'll rise again! Yaw [Verse 2] Cause the fiery heart of a champion cannot be quelched By a failure or an embarra**ment, no-way-no And the critics all agreed it was a stinky pile of cheese But that does not mean that our hearts are not strong [Hook 1] Just like the phoenix We'll f**in' rise again, yahh That's right, the phoenix We'll rise again! [Verse 3] Sunshine, it's a hell of a day Riding back, and it's headed your way D's here, now we're puttin' on a show We're sneakin' up, climbing into your window [Verse 4] Hard rockin', yeah we're rockin' again Black Mamba is my personal friend Phil Jackson is a master of zen We'll pick you up, take you out on the weekend [Chorus 2] It's the rise of the phoenix It's a call of attack And you'll know when you've seen us -- The f**in' D is back! [Verse 5] Lovemaking all the way to the top Boots smokin', but I'm not gonna stop Bossa Nova is a beautiful dance Hot-blooded, that's a lot of romance [Chorus 3] It's the rise of the phoenix And we ride with the pack It's the magic between us The f**in' D is back [Interlude] But, what if it's true? If Tenacious D has died, what will we do? And what will we do Bout all the fans who have the D tattoo? They'll have them removed They'll have to laser off their D tattoos Tattoo-oo-ooos They'll have to laser off their D tattoos, ah [Verse 6: Jack Black (and Kyle Ga**)] Wait a minute, Kage (What's that you say?) You know it's not too late (Yes, it is too late) We only need one hit (Just imagine it) We could be the sh**! Too legit to quit! One hit, one hit, one hit Yeah, we're hoping this is it One hit, top ten hit, top forty hit, top thousand hit I don't care, as long as we get there, we'll start anew And you can get a new Tenacious D tattoo [Outro] You can get a new Tenacious D tattoo!
