[Verse 1]
When The Pick of Destiny was released, it was a bomb
And all the critics said that the D was done
The sun had set and the chapter had closed
But one thing no one thought about was the D would rise again

[Chorus]
Just like the phoenix
We'll fucking rise again
That's right, the phoenix
We'll rise again, yah

[Verse 2]
'Cause the fiery heart of a champion cannot be quelched
By a failure or an embarrassment, no way, no
And the critics all agreed it was a stinky pile of cheese
But that does not mean that our hearts are not strong

[Chorus]
Just like the phoenix
We'll fucking rise again, yah
That's right, the phoenix
We'll rise again
Ah

[Verse 3]
Sun shinin', it's a hell of a day
Ridin' back and it's headed your way
D's here, now we're puttin' on a show
We're sneakin' up, climbin' into your window
[Verse 4]
Hard rockin', yeah, we're rockin' again
Black Mamba is my personal friend
Phil Jackson is the master of zen
We'll pick you up, take you out for the weekend

[Chorus]
It's the rise of the phoenix
It's a call of attack
And you'll know when you've seen us
The fuckin' D is back, yah

[Verse 5]
Love-makin' all the way to the top
Boots smokin', but I'm not gonna stop
Bossa nova is a beautiful dance
Hot-blooded, that's a lots of romance

[Chorus]
It's the rise of the phoenix
And we ride with the pack
It's the magic between us
The fuckin' D is back

[Bridge]
But what if it's true?
If Tenacious D has died, what will we do?
And what will we do
'Bout all the fans who have the D tattoo?
They'll have them removed
They'll have to laser off their D tattoos
Tattoo
They'll have to laser off their D tattoo, ah
[Verse 6: Jack Black & Kyle Gass]
Wait a minute, Kage
What's that you say?
You know it's not too late
Yes, it is too late
We only need one hit
Just imagine it
We could be the shit
Too legit to quit

[Outro]
One hit, one hit, one hit
Yeah, we're hoping this is it
One hit, top ten hit
Top forty hit, top thousand hit
I don't care, as long as we get there
We'll start anew
And you can get a new Tenacious D tattoo
You can get a new Tenacious D tattoo
