Dance Fu Fighting is a rap battle[1] song inspired by Vinnie's imagination at Shanghai after the girls tease him about having to keep ghosts away.
Composer Daniel Ingram gave special thanks to Caleb Chan for his work on the arrangement of Ingram's "first real rap battle". The song's original demo was sung by Ingram, but it "will forever be in the vault".[1]
Lyrics[]
- Vinnie: (grunting)
- [Vinnie]
- I'm the one dancer no ghost can lick
- Sending evil spirits packing with my lizard scissor kick
- I spin like a butterfly, sting like a bee
- You're a ghost? So what? You still don't scare me
- Oops, watch out! Nope, you didn't see that
- I twinkle on my toes and one, two, three, splat
- Every pirouette spin is faster than lightning
- If there's anything I'm good at, it's dance fu fighting
- [Terra Cotta Warrior Chief]
- I'm the Terra Cotta King, you don't stand a chance
- I've got a hundred ancient warriors just waiting to dance
- Every kick, step in perfect synchronization
- The undefeated ghost army of the dance fu nation
- [Vinnie]
- You've been buried in the ground since ancient times
- I know trees who are better at busting out rhymes
- Your moves are so old they're all covered in rust
- Prepare your ghost army to be turned to dust
- A little do-se-do step and then repeat
- This is one dance where I step on your feet
- I spin like a dervish just try and run
- That's ghost army zero to one hundred and one
- Vinnie: Hi-yah.
- (pets laughing and cheering)
- (thunder crashes)
- [Chinese Dragon]
- What's the problem, Vinnie? You look a little scared
- Not used to fighting dragons? Better start to prepare
- My entire body is a dance fu fighting machine
- I'll eat five of you for breakfast and still stay lean
- Trained in the ancient art of dance war
- I'll scare you to death, then bring you back for more
- I've seen your puny moves, it's a dancing fail
- Now prepare to get schooled by my dance fu tail
- [Vinnie]
- You're big, I'll admit you got that going
- But oops, watch out, I think your clumsy is showing
- You call yourself a dragon? You can't even blow fire
- Grab a cane and sit back, you're about to retire
- Vinnie: (grunts) Boo.
- Chinese Dragon: (whimpering)
