The Lyrics
..or what the MiB theme tune might have been if Mel Brooks had done it rather than Will Smith (whose lyric "Freezing up the flack" is somewhat confusingly quoted below)
We're men, we're Men in Black
We love to give those aliens a smack!
We're men, we're Men in Black
We've no fingerprints and don't leave a trail or track
We neutralize mem'ries, you can't complain - we ain't gonna give 'em back
We're men, we're Men in Black
Protecting the Earth from alien attack
[Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones do the can-can]
We're men, HUMAN men, we're Men in Black, see!
Protection against the scum of the galax..y
We're men, we're Men in Black
Whatever this means, we're freezing up all the flack
We may look like pansies, but see something strange, you got us watchin' your back
We're men, we're Men in Black (DARK black),
Protecting the Earth from alien attack
When you see a bug, just call for the Men in Black
We're cool
We love to give those aliens a smack!
We're men, we're Men in Black
We've no fingerprints and don't leave a trail or track
We neutralize mem'ries, you can't complain - we ain't gonna give 'em back
We're men, we're Men in Black
Protecting the Earth from alien attack
[Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones do the can-can]
We're men, HUMAN men, we're Men in Black, see!
Protection against the scum of the galax..y
We're men, we're Men in Black
Whatever this means, we're freezing up all the flack
We may look like pansies, but see something strange, you got us watchin' your back
We're men, we're Men in Black (DARK black),
Protecting the Earth from alien attack
When you see a bug, just call for the Men in Black
We're cool

I'm giving you a vote of 555 because the utter stupidity of this parody put a smile on my face. ;-)
Maybe we should erase the memory of the Ones Guy, so that he'll be a happier costumer... :-)
Excellent..and the same theme as Jews In Space from History of the World Part One for those who remember.
Dark black! - that must be really black - funny idea Phil - 555
Original movie: funny: Sequel: wretchedly unfunny. Parody: funny.
Thanks, guys... I've been singing "Men In Tights" for a few days now, wondering what to do as a parody. Then I heard Will Smith's "Men In Black", trying to be soooo cool, and thought the crossover was a funny idea on its own.
Jeff - don't think I've seen HotWpt1... I'm not surprised this tune's been re-used, it's kind of fun.

Damn... I'm gonna have to neuralise you and pretend I wrote this one. Two of my favourite comedies combined.... gotta give it 5's :-)
Definitely worth renting Phil, HOTWPt1 is one if Mel Brooks' best, if not the best. The tune is actually a very small part of it (smaller than it was in Men In Tights).
Great idea, Mr A; Mr Brooks should write the theme tunes to ALL Hollywood blockbusters! 555
Will do, Jeff - I've enjoyed pretty much every Mel B film I've seen - Blazing Saddles probably being my favourite (though RH-MIT comes a close second)
Kristof - I've got a "Blazing Saddles" parody around unfinished somewhere... maybe that could change path to a "Bedazzled" one or something similar :-)

hey! i just got onto this page while surching the lyrics of the song! robin hood -men in tights is the best film i ever saw ( and i've seen far more then 500 films in my life! ) but this song is really well done!!
