Lyrics

English translation

Gamera!
Gamera!
You are strong, Gamera!
You are strong, Gamera!
You are strong, Gamera!
M! M! J! V!
M! M! J! V!
Monsters coming from Mars,
Or some other alien world?
Come on, space monsters!
Bring it on!
Let's cut and poke!
Okay, go-go-go!
Using spinning jets,
He will win!
You are strong, Gamera!
You are strong, Gamera!
You are strong, Gamera!

Mystery Science Theater 3000 version

Gamera! Gamera!
Gamera is really neat!
Gamera is filled with meat!
We've been eating Gamera!
Shell!
Teeth!
Eyes!
Flames!
Claws!
Breath!
Scales!
Fun!!
Dr. Forrester is kind of a jerk,
And Frank is really dumb, too
We have to take part in these lame experiments
But do we complain?
No!
No!
Yes!
Huh?
So we hi-keeba all over the place
And talk of a thousand wonderful days
Gamera is really sweet!
He is filled with turtle meat!
Now we have commercial sign!
