lyrics

There's ninjas crawling over Auckland
There's ninjas crawling all over Auckland
They tried to hide, but the policemen caught them,
But they got let off with a warning.
There's ninjas crawling over Auckland.
There's ninjas crawling all over Auckland.

They've got swords!
They've got throwing stars.
They got knives!
And nunchuckas.
They wear masks, when they go out at night,
They think they can, but they can't really fight.

There's ninjas crawling over Auckland
There's ninjas crawling all over Auckland
They got their moves straight out of the comics
Though that's not what the teacher taught us.

They've got swords
They got throwing stars
They got knives
And nunchuckas
They get beat up
by teenage gangs.
They're an embarrassment to the other clans.

To the Sensei, To the Sensei, Bow. Bow.
To the Sensei, To the Sensei, Bow. Bow.
Oh…….Oh…Ow……..Ow………
Your dirty tricks can't save you now!

[Solo] 先生に礼

So, yo what's up, my ninjers?
You got messy black ink on your fingers.
You got strip-searched for your adventures,
It's old news, but the laughter lingers.

They've got sores
They're seeing stars.
They got drunk
and kicked out of bars.
They got caught
playing a stupid game.
They wear masks now
to hide their shame.

There's ninjas crawling over Auckland (GOOD GOD!)
There's ninja's crawling all over Auckland…
They tried to hide, but the policemen caught them,
But they got let off with a warning.
