Mr. Miranda!
Mr. Miranda is arriving in person!
He's his father's true son! Who dares to be his enemy?
He will defeat the greatest of villains!
He will teach lessons never taught before, hey!
He will defeat the greatest of villains!
He will teach lessons never taught before!
The entire world is my territory!
Shoo-shoo, shoo-shoo-shoo...
But the country I live in is Nigeria!
Ha... ha... ha... ha... ha...
Even the forest trembles if a gentle soul turns wild!
The whole country trembles when I rise up!
I have a fearless heart and eyes that never beg!
I have fame everywhere; who can match my style? Come on...
Mr. Miranda is arriving in person!
He's his father's true son! Who dares to be his enemy?
He will defeat the greatest of villains!
He will teach lessons never taught before!
Who is a superstar like you?
In your hands, I am a bass guitar!
You will love only me!
My cheek is your whiskey bar!
A hero among heroes, a champion among champions!
With all of that combined, you are a formidable man!
King of kings, darling apple of my eye!
Come sway behind me and shower me with kisses, come on...
Mr. Miranda is arriving in person!
He's his father's true son! Who dares to be his enemy?
Come, my love, I am your match!
Right there is your love story!
Come close, oh my dear!
You are not just a girl, you are a red flower!
Come close, oh my dear!
You are not just a girl, you are a red flower!
Come, my love, I am your match!
Right there is your love story!
The way you look at me is like flashes of lightning!
Striking straight at this lovely girl!
Your dance with me, my dance with you!
Like bees dancing on a flower bouquet, full of fun and celebration, come on!
Mr. Miranda is arriving in person, hey!
He's his father's true son! Who dares to be his enemy?
