This here’s the story ‘bout Mario and Bobby Gould
A young superstar, and how he got schooled
Mario was 21, Gould was a veteran
And here’s what happened when Gould got under Mario’s skin

They played a game at the, oo-old Caps Centre
That’s where the star fought with the third line grinder
Mario was left eating food made in a blender
Cuz’ Mario dropped the gloves and scrummed

Go on drop the gloves and scrum
Go on drop the gloves and scrum
Go on drop the gloves and scrum
Go on drop the gloves and scrum

Bobby Gould made the league ‘cuz he knows what hard work is
He knows if you fight a star, he’s off the ice for five minutes
He wasn’t gonna let a fool kid escape justice
He made his living off of the season tickets

The Penguins’ season, whoa, it ended that day
But Mario learned about the right way to play
He got his Cups, hey
You know he came out OK
Took over the team, which he’s still running today,
Singing, don’t drop your gloves and scrum
Don’t drop your gloves and scrum
     [falsetto] Sid the kid
Don’t drop your gloves and scrum
     [growling] Gino
Don’t drop your gloves and scrum
