Hard to Be a Leader Lyrics by MC Lars, Mega Ran

2023

[Verse 1: MC Lars]
I'm the type of rat to eat a cat for dinner
But respect on my name, yo, it's Master Splinter
The sensei, a father, to four little turtles
Living in the sewer, always facing hella hurdles
Now they're teenagers and it's getting complicated
It's mayhem with these mutants, fatherhood is overrated
Because when they start to fight
Well, it's looking like the team's done
Hiding in the shadows, feeling battier than Wingnut
Thеre's Michelangelo, free-spiritеd and funny
With nunchucks and a giant heart, he sends the ops running
And then there's Raphael, he's always gotta give them hell
With the twin sai technique, teach him to control himself
And Donatello, well, I love his brilliant mind
Always tinkering with things, Leonardo is the spine
Being a leader can be messy, but we're ready
No one said it would be easy fighting Bebop and Rocksteady!
[Chorus: MC Lars & Mega Ran & Cowboy Coder, MC Lars]
It's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (And no, it never gets better!)
Said it's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (Ask Splinter and Shredder!)
It's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (They don't hear the words we're sayin'!)
Said it's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (Yeah, it's truly mutant mayhem!)
[Verse 2: Mega Ran]
With so much drama in the NYC
It's kinda hard running the Foot Clan, that's the job
Cool to have a squad that's down to squab
But most of these idiots
Wouldn't know their feet from doorknobs
Don't get me started on Rocksteady and Bebop!
Delicate operations, warthogs in a tea shop
Balls are getting dropped, plans are getting bungled
Someone's going to jail, man, it's like a jungle
And worse? Every time I have one of them trapped
There's always a brother that seems to have one of their backs!
Man, I wish I had close-knit ties like that
The guys I despise get guides from a rat
I feel like a parent and sometimes I am trapped
No time for this crap, I'm herding cats
We got dimensions to rule… no one's gettin' it!
Ugh! I'm surrounded by idiots!
[Chorus: MC Lars & Mega Ran & Cowboy Coder, MC Lars]
It's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (And no, it never gets better!)
Said it's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (Ask Splinter and Shredder!)
It's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (They don't hear the words we're sayin'!)
Said it's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (Yeah, it's truly mutant mayhem!)
It's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (And no, it never gets better!)
Said it's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (Ask Splinter and Shredder!)
It's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (They don't hear the words we're sayin'!)
Said it's hard to be a leader, it's hard to be a leader
So hard to be a leader (Yeah, it's truly mutant mayhem!)
