Nine of the greatest of all time
They used be in their prime
Now they came here to ryhne
Verse 1: Indiana Jones)
They call me Jones, I wrote the book on this scene,
Part-time professor, full-time adventure machine.
While you're loading your pistols and planning your wars,
I'm finding lost arks and crashing through floors.
With a crack of my whip and my trusty fedora,
I'll put you all back in the history stor-a.
(Verse 2: James Bond)
History? Please. My missions are current and clean,
The name is Bond, licensed by country and Queen.
I'll stop any villain with gadgets and charm,
With a beautiful woman attached to my arm.
So take your dusty whip, I'll take a martini,
Your whole "adventure" schtick is beneath me, you see.
(Verse 3: Jason Bourne)
That charm is a crutch for a man who is weak,
I'll end this whole fight with a pen to your cheek.
I don't need a gadget, I don't need a plan,
I don't even really know who I am.
But I know how to win, how to fight, how to kill,
And your slick, tailored suit is now standing stock-still.
(Verse 4: John Rambo)
You were a weapon, but I am the war,
The kind that you start then can't end anymore.
They drew first blood, so I'll give them a flood,
Drag you all through the jungle and cover you in mud.
With my knife and my bow, I'll survive any fight,
And fade back like a ghost in the dead of the night.
(Verse 5: John McClane)
A ghost? Pal, I'm the fly in your ointment, the pain,
Just a New York cop, caught out in the rain.
You guys chose this life, I was just visiting town,
Now I'm barefoot on glass while I'm taking you down.
So come out to the coast, we'll get together, have a few laughs,
Yippee-Ki-Yay, mother... you can do the math.
(Verse 6: Sarah Connor)
You think glass is a problem? That's barely a scratch,
There is no fate but the future we snatch.
I went from a waitress to a tactical strategist,
Forging the future with my own two fists.
While you're crawling through vents, I am loading my clips,
For the metal-skinned nightmares that slip past your lips.
(Verse 7: Ellen Ripley)
Nightmares? I've lived one, with acid for blood,
Stranded in space, misunderstood.
You fight men and machines, and that's all well and good,
But I fight a creature not from your neighborhood.
If your neighborhood's hell, then get out of my way,
I've got the queen bitch of the universe to slay.
(Verse 8: The Terminator - T-800)
Slaying that creature is an illogical plan.
I am a cybernetic organism. Not a man.
I feel no pain, no remorse, and no fear,
My mission parameters are perfectly clear.
I will not stop, ever, until you are dead.
Hasta la vista... baby. Enough has been said.
(Verse 9: John Wick)
You say you won't stop? That's a curious thing,
For the Baba Yaga, the news that I bring.
You were sent to kill heroes, well I was sent too...
But I'm the one that you send to go after YOU.
With a pencil, a gun, or a book from a shelf,
Yeah, I'm thinkin' I'm back. Time to end this myself.
