"Get in Your Mech" is a song from Experiment #1202 - Atlantic Rim. It is an improvised song sung by Jonah and the 'Bots when Kinga and Max want a catchy song similar to "Every Country Has a Monster", as both Atlantic Rim and Reptilicus have a monster in them.
The music and lyrics were written by Storm DiCostanzo and Paul Sabourin of Paul & Storm, with the lyrics also being co-written by Hampton Yount and Elliott Kalan.
The Set-Up[]
- (Servo and Crow show up in mech suits)
- Crow T. Robot: Jonah, why do we have to wear these stupid, stupid mech suits?
- Tom Servo: Yeah, this one's really tight on my, uh, area.
- Jonah Heston: (sighs) Don't ask me, Kinga decreed it.
- Kinga Forrester: I sure did. We're on episode 2 and I think we need a big viral ear worm like last season's hit song, "Every Country Has a Monster".
- Max: Reptilicus had a monster in it. Atlantic Rim has got a monster in it. It calls out for a banging jam! The mech suits add production value.
- Jonah: But "Every Country Has a Monster" was just one of those things you can't possibly recreate by design!
- Servo: Yeah. It was the first sketch of the new season.
- Jonah: Yeah.
- Servo: There we were, an all new cast trying to make sense of it all, and we simply, humbly, knocked it out of the park.
- Jonah: Well...
- Crow: Yeah, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that we were indeed pure magic!
- Jonah: Crow, maybe not that, but we--you can't just demand we come up with a brilliant song.
- Kinga: But we do. We do demand it. Or I'll hit the shock dickies!
- (both Kinga and Max chuckle)
- Jonah: Well, I don't know what that is, but it sounds painful. Uh... Growler, M. Waverly... hit it!
- (Gypsy in a blue mech suit, Growler and M. Waverly appear playing the keyboard and drums respectively as the song begins)
- Crow: Oh, sick beat drop.
- Servo: Yeah.
- Jonah: Okay...
- Servo: This is a jam.
- Gypsy: I like this.
- Jonah: Yeah, we could do this. Should I start, or...
- Servo: Yeah, you should start, definitely you.
Lyrics[]
- Jonah: We're going cruising ain't never gonna slow down
- Crow: Dancing like pirates in a Punxsutawney hoedown
- Servo: Electric city or a borough or a township
- Jonah: Life is a circus and we're living at the clown tip
- Crow: Badgers in the backyard because of all the solar flares
- Servo: Don't ever sublet your apartment to some polar bears
- Jonah: (spoken) Um... I made an omelet out of 2700 eggs.
- Servo: (spoken) Yeah!
- Crow and Servo: He really, really, really, really, really, really loves eggs
- Jonah: My racing machine poutine-ing the fries
- Gypsy: And sleepy Graham Greene can barely keep his eyes open
- Servo: Get in your mech
- Crow: Protect ya neck
- Jonah: Like Gregory Peck would do if he were alive
- Gypsy: Don't work on spec
- Crow and Servo: A post-dated check
- Jonah and the 'Bots: Genuflect and get in your mech and drive
The Aftermath[]
- Kinga: Guys, guys, guys, guys, this is--this is nowhere near the majesty of "Every Country Has a Monster". This is... not what we had in mind!
- Max: Yeah, it stinks! A--a--and not in the joke way, it just really stinks.
- Jonah and the 'Bots: We built a deck with Alex Trebek
- Funky discotheque...
- Jonah: (spoken) Oh, we got Movie Sign!
Trivia[]
- Before the song begins, Max is seen holding the Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Return (Music from the Netflix Original Series) album, which featured the song "Every Country Has a Monster".
- The nonsensical lyrics in the song are similar to "Idiot Control", featured in Experiment #303 - Pod People. Max also says "It stinks!" and gives the O.K. sign gesture when saying "not in the joke way" similar to how Joel gave the gesture after the song.
