(NukLeon)
There was a happenin’ place called the Hyperdrive Diner
It was the top-of-the-line, you’d find everybody there
But then the shockwave came and busted the building to the nines
Still some might say a single robot survived
(NukLeon and Inkwell)
A little saucer shape with three little metal graspers
And a new prototype culinary synthesizer
He had a specialty that had people lining up for hours
Everybody wanted to eat…
(Hyperdrive Diner Loudspeaker)
“Be sure to try Lucky’s World Famous Grilled Cheese, only at the Hyperdrive Diner!”
(NukLeon)
He floated out to meet the day!
(Inkwell)
Found the world had met decay!
(NukLeon and Inkwell)
Not a living thing in sight
Legends tell of what he heard nearby
(The Wizettes)
Wizzo! Wizzo!
He’s a genuine wizard!
Wizzo! Wizzo!
He’s got magic powers!
Wizzo! Wizzo!
Supernatural cereal, can’t be beat!
Wizzo! Wizzo!
Won’t you conjure up a bowl for me?
(NukLeon)
It was a TV spot for a sugary cereal
But there was something off that caught Lucky’s eye
(NukLeon and Inkwell)
The wizard on the screen was pouring Wiz-O’s from his sweaty hands
It was honestly a little upsetting to see!
(LC-K3)
*Grossed out beeps*
(NukLeon)
An idea popped into his head!
(Inkwell)
Something he could do instead!
(NukLeon and Inkwell)
No restaurants left to work for
If food=wizard Then
LC-K3=wizard_too
(NukLeon)
He made one sandwich, then made seven more
And soon there were enough to block up the door
He practiced for hours, for days, for months
Until he heard somebody who was making a fuss
He went to check it out and it was a woman with a little daughter
Being bothered by some raiders (*Angey LC-K3 beeps*)
So he made a grilled cheese monster fully animate
And gave those raiders a taste of it
(NukLeon)
He helped all those who were in need
(Inkwell)
He put out fires, set puppies free!
(NukLeon and Inkwell)
He was a friend to all {except bad guys}
He was known where-e’re he’d go
And everybody’d sing
(Doodlebug)
*BARK BARK*
(NukLeon)
Oh they’d sing!
(NukLeon, Inkwell, and The Wizettes)
Lucky! Lucky!
He’s a genuine wizard!
Lucky! Lucky!
He’s got magic powers!
Lucky! Lucky!
He makes a dang good grilled cheese!
Lucky! Lucky!
Won’t you conjure one up for me?
(NukLeon)
Oh! Wah! Eyah! Oh!
Oh, you know someday he’s gonna save the universe
For all mankind
(The Wizettes)
And robot kind!
(NukLeon)
I know he’s out there somewhere
Helping anyone in need with bread and melted cheese
So now, all we can do is sing
Yeah now all we can do is sing
(NukLeon and Inkwell)
Lucky! Lucky!
You’re a genuine wizard!
Lucky! Lucky!
You’ve got magic powers!
Lucky! Lucky!
Makes a dang good grilled cheese!
Lucky! Lucky!
Won’t you conjure one up for me?
(LC-K3)
