Captain Planet is a strange cover of the theme song of the children’s cartoon Captain Planet. Its lyrics are mostly the same as the original, other than the addition of “No I won’t!/Screw you!”, and the change of “The power is yours!” to “…mine!”, but the performance style is intentionally strange-sounding and exaggerated.

Earth, Fire, Wind, Water, Heart
Go Planet!
By your powers combined, I am Captain Planet!
Captain Planet, he’s our hero
Gonna take pollution down to zero
He’s our powers magnified
And he’s fighting on the planet’s side
Captain Planet, he’s our hero (he’s our hero)
Gonna take pollution down to zero
Gonna help him put asunder
Bad guys who like to loot and plunder
You’ll pay for this, Captain Planet
(No I won’t!)
…Screw you!
We’re the Planeteers — you can be one too
‘Cause saving our planet is the thing to do
Looting and polluting is not the way
Hear what Captain Planet has to say!
The power is mine!
