History Lyrics by Tenacious D

The Pick of Destiny

2006

[Intro]
This is a song called The History of Tenacious D
And it's not just a list of bullshit that we've done in the past
It's a chronicling of our rise — To power!

[Verse 1]
We ride with kings on mighty steeds across the Devil's plain
We've walked with Jesus and his cross
He did not die in vain — No!

[Verse 2]
We've run with wolves, we've climbed K2, even stopped a moving train
We've traveled through space, and time, my friends
To rock this house again — Rock!

[Verse 3]
We ride and we ride, and we'll never subside
And we'll ride 'til the planets collide
And if you say that we do not ride, I'll tan your fuckin' hide — Ride!

[Verse 4: Jack Black & Kyle Gass]
Kyle's fingers be silver — Jack's voice then be gold
But lest you think we're vain
We know you're all robots, and we don't care
Tenacious D — We reign!

[Outro]
We reign
Supreme
Oh God
Burrito Supreme
And a Chicken Supreme
And a Cutlass Supreme
Supreme, yeah
Go now Kyle, 1-2-3
Supreme, yeah
Go now Kyle, 1-2-3
Supreme
Go now Kyle, 1-2-3
Burrito Supreme
And a Chicken Supreme
And a Cutlass Supreme
Supreme!
