The Koopas are Coming!," and "Alley Oop" in "Quest for Pizza."

Lyrics[edit]

This could be the ride of our lives!
Wonder if we can survive
Koopa's comin' faster
We're headed for disaster
Let's get in our gondola and drive!

Oh, speedy gondola!
They're on our tail!
The Doom Sub's getting closer
And it looks about the size of a whale!

Venice will never be the same
If the canals… go down the drain!

Oh, speedy gondola!
They're on our tail!
The Doom Sub's getting closer
And it looks about the size of a whale!
