about

Go Guitargonauts is an imaginary Japanese TV kids' cartoon for which Emperor Penguin were commissioned - in their own minds - to write the theme tune. If the show is ever made, the music is ready.

lyrics

Speeding through space, in search of tunes
That need the twang of a million moons
Green sapphire plectra, poised to attack
Fenders aflame, Gibsons to stun,
a pentatonic miracle from the Rickenbac-ac-ac-ac-ac-ker
Cosmic riders on a pedal board that so-o-o-o-ars...

Go go go Guitargonauts, whammy bar bending, augmenteds descending
screaming through your darkest thoughts,
plucking the pleasure from every measure

Hand picked from across the bands of time
Warriors battling musical crime
Strings bent through Warp Factor 9,
listen to the sirens from the Telecast-as-as-as-as-ter
Cosmic riders on a pedal board that so-o-o-o-ars...

Go go go Guitargonauts, whammy bar bending, augmenteds descending
screaming through your darkest thoughts,
plucking the pleasure from every measure

Slash Gordon, Kid Hendrix, Captain Clapton,
The Red Ronson,
Queen Bass and The Fantastic Fuzz -
BEWARE THE VIRULENT MOOG

Go go go Guitargonauts,
when someone’s in trouble we’ll come at the double
creating space-age perfect chords,
through countless millenia they’ll never forget ya
Guitargonauts are Go!
