The Lyrics

As Bond History Month comes to a close, we present to you one last bonus parody, a tribute to the past, the present and the future of James Bond. To quote Ben Jonson, "He was not of an age, but for all time!"* Enjoy the parody!
Guess who just got back today?
That secret agent who had saved the day!
Hasn’t changed, hasn’t much to say,
But, man I still think that cat is crazy!

He was askin’ if goons were around,
Where’s their boss, where he could be found?
I told him he was in some resort town,
Tryin’ to build a laser.

James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)
I said, James Bond is back in town!
James Bond is back in town!
James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)
James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)

You know those chicks who followed Bond a lot?
Every day, they would risk their lives caught up in some plot.
Man, when I tell you they were cool, they were red-hot!
I mean, they were smokin’!

Not all are just a pretty face,
Some of them are tough; one went up to outer space!
Man, they’ll just get caught up in this race!
If some chick wants to avenge, start runnin’!

James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)
I said, James Bond is back in town!
James Bond is back in town!
James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)
James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)

Spread the word around!
Guess who’s back in town?
Let’s spread the word around!

Every night, Bond is dressed to kill,
Down in Russia or Brazil,
The bullets fly and blood will spill,
And if the man wants to fight, you’d better let him!

There’s James Bond and the villains blastin’ at each others’ throats,
When James Bond has won again, he’s got a quote –
Got a quote with morbid wit.
Looks like our man is here to stay!

James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)
James Bond is back in town!
James Bond is back in town!
James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)

(Spread the word!)
James Bond is back in town! (James Bond is back in town!)
(James Bond is back!)
(James Bond is back!)

James Bond is back in town again!
He’s got a gun and gadgets!
James Bond is back in town again!

Bond has a license to kill, as you have a license to thrill with parodies like these ;-) 555! :-)

This would make a good theme song for the next movie!

Came here via the 'Random' feature, Dylan. I thought you covered Bond and the Bond Girls quite well at a high level. I would have liked to have seen a bit more variety attempted in the choruses, though, they were a bit repetitive. Nonetheless, and enjoyable parody!

Yeah, it happens with a lot of songs. Maybe I should just put in "Chorus (2x)" or whatever to cut down on repetition.
