Lyrics[]

MOVING GUY
So they say
Captain Hammer's become a crusader
Political, he's cleanin' up the streets

OTHER MOVING GUY
(spoken)
About time!

HAMMER GROUPIES
(#1)
So they say that it's real love,
(all)
so romantic!
(#2)
He signed this!

PENNY
So they say we'll have blankets and beds
we can open by Monday,
thanks to you.

CAPTAIN HAMMER
Thanks to me!

NEWSCASTERS
(both)
It's the perfect story
(Man)
So they say!
(Woman)
The hero leading the way.
(both)
Hammer's call to glory.
(Woman)
Let's all be our best!
(Man)
Next up, who's gay?

HAMMER GROUPIES
(#3)
So they say he saved her life.
(#1):
They say she works with the homeless
and doesn't eat meat.
We have a
(all)
problem with her!
(#2)
This is his hair!

CAPTAIN HAMMER
This is so nice.
I just might sleep with the same girl twice.
They say it's better the second time,
they say you get to do the weird stuff.

HAMMER GROUPIES
We do the weird stuff!

PENNY
This is perfect for me,
so they say.
I guess he's pretty OK.
After years of stormy sailing
have I finally found the bay?

MOIST
(spoken)
He's still not picking up.

DR HORRIBLE and PENNY
There's no happy ending,
so they say.

DR HORRIBLE
Not for me anyway.

PENNY
Should I (both) stop pretending 

DR HORRIBLE  
Take a chance you build a brand new day. 

PENNY
Or is this a brand new day? 

HAMMER GROUPIES
(#2)
This is his dry-cleaning bill!
(all)
Four sweater-vests!
