The Lyrics
a small but not detailed summary of "Transformers 3: The Dark of the Moon"
Intro: I’m Shia LaBeouf, I play Sam Witwicky
Here’s a little story and it may seem tricky
Swift and sly, Imma tell you quickly
With my homegirl, Rosie Whitley
Verse 1: Baby, seems we’re always under a siege
We gotta battle
But that’s hard to teach
Things gettin’ serious
Get ready to fight
Decepticons are bad
And you know they ain’t right!
The world’s in peril
From robots again
This time it’s worse though
Cuz there’s no Megan!
And when we’re falling
Then I have to shout
The Autobots are coming
So it all works out
Chorus: I run, five feet forward
Get knocked ten feet back
This world is safer
When Optimus attacks
And you know, it’s strategic
When he’s knocked off the tracks
But I ain’t stressin’
Cuz Optimus attacks!
Verse 2: Who’da thought… (ah)
They could have planned this
Hide on the moon
Then transport their planet
Megatron’s mean
And he makes a mess
I think we’re losing
Baby, now I’m depressed!
They’ve shut down Chi-town
It’s gone up in smoke
Blew up the Autobots
And this ain’t no joke!
Seems we’re finished
And we’ll soon be dead
But Optimus has returned
Flying over our heads
Chorus: I run, five feet forward
Knocked out with a whack
There’s no escapin’
When Optimus attacks
And they know, they can’t win now
With a Prime at our backs
This war is ruined
When Optimus attacks
Bridge: Something is fishy, on that moon
It’s coming quickly, it’s coming soon
Death’s going up, pop.’s going down
Decepticons take over our towns
When things go wrong get reinforcements
The Autobots look like Ford endorsements
Tryin’ to fight us, but I’m tellin’ those macks
It’s useless, Optimus attack!
Verse 3: Baby, ain’t it somethin’
The Decepticons lost
Autobots, showin’ what was the cost
Don’t think they’ll ever
Start a single death match
The reason for that
Is that they are all smashed!
Chorus: I run, five feet forward
Get knocked ten feet back
They all are done-for
Cuz Optimus attacks
And I know, doesn’t matter
It’s a single or pack
He’ll tak’em all down
When Optimus attacks
Chorus: I run, five feet forward
Get knocked ten feet back
This world is safer
When Optimus attacks
And you know, it’s strategic
When he’s knocked off the tracks
But I ain’t stressin’
Cuz Optimus attacks!
Chorus: I run, five feet forward
Knocked out with a whack
There’s no escapin’
When Optimus attacks
And they know, they can’t win now
With a Prime at our backs
This war is ruined
When Optimus attacks
Outro: Five feet forward
Ten feet back
Optimus attacks
This world is safer
Not just on paper
Cuz Optimus, Optimus
Optimus attacks!

Blayde - prior to this, I knew next to nothing about Transformers. Thanks for a well-written tutorial. ;D
(Artistry) Ha! Ford endorsements! Ha! A brilliant use of rhyme and humor here. And I'm with you...Megan is hotter. 555 for you here, Blayde! Keep this stuff coming!
(Artistry) Ford endorsements was my fave line, too.Now I REALLY dont need to see the movie! :)
(Artistry) Not that I was going to see the movie anyway, but this nicely sums it up. Good work.
I agree with Rex on this one. I never was going to see this film Transformers 2 ruined it for me but I'm pretty sure T-Cop is going to love this one (being such a huge Transformers fan)
(Artistry) I find the Ford advertisements particularly hilarious 'cause there was one Ford in all three films and even that wasn't technically licensed. I think. It's too technical for me to remember. That said, pretty decent attempt to sum up the film, though the many repeated choruses of the OS did work against you there. Still, 555 is the right of all sentient parodists. Also, for the record: I prefer Rosie. Slightly better actress IMO.
I had no intention of seeing the film, and (sorry TCOP) not a huge fan of the movie version of Transformers (I loved the cartoon series as a kid by contrast) because to me the animation is just goofy and the transformations look plain silly. It was a tad difficult to really get into this one as someone who doesn't care for the films. . .good write even if I couldn't get into it
