Hong Kong Phooey Lyrics
Who is this super hero? Sarge? No!
Rosemary the telephone operator? No way man!
Henry the mild mannered janitor?
Hong kong phooey, the number one super guy
Hong kong phooey, quicker than the human eye
Oh, hes got style, a groovy smile, a bod that just won’t stop
When the going gets rough, hes super tough
With the hong kong phooey chop
Hong kong phooey, the number one super guy
Hong kong phooey, quicker than the human eye
Cho chicly lo chicly bow wow wow
Dong diggity dong diggity dong dong dong
(pick it up pick it up pick it up)
