Do The Mario!

Do The Mario! is a song that played during the ending credits sequence of the 1989 television series (and, by extension, The Legend of Zelda, which was shown as a segment of the same show). The song itself is a remix of the overworld theme from with showrunner Lou Albano (who played Mario) singing how to perform the titular "The Mario" dance.
Though it is unknown who wrote the song, the credits for The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! do note that the show's music was done by Haim Saban and Shuki Levy, and it is likely that one or both of them came up with the song.
The fifteenth episode of the 1990-1991 television series was named "Do the Koopa" in reference to this song, and featured a song under that name. This song, while very different, can be seen as a sort of parallel to Do The Mario! in that it is sung by and about King Koopa and the Koopa Kids as opposed to Mario.
== Lyrics ==
Do the Mario!
Swing your arms from side to side 
Come on, it's time to go! 
Do the Mario! 
Take one step, and then again. 
Let's do the Mario, all together now! 
You've got it! 
It's the Mario! 
Do the Mario! 
Swing your arms from side to side 
Come on, it's time to go! 
Do the Mario! 
Take one step, and then again. 
Let's do the Mario, all together now!
Come on now, just like that!
=== Do The Koopa! ===
Do the Koopa
Rip the hoopa
Do a loop-de-loopa
Or you'll be a party poopa
Everybody do the Koopa
Everybody shout and pout
Everybody do the Koopa
Everybody shake your snout
Everybody do the Koopa
Everybody shake your scales
Everybody do the Koopa
Everybody wag your tails
Do the Koopa
Rip the hoopa
Do a loop-de-loopa
Or you'll be a party poopa
Everybody do the Koopa
Once you start you can't stop (no)
Everybody do the Koopa
Bop, hop, flop and slop
And rock rock rock until you drop drop drop
Do the Koopa
Rip the hoopa
Do the Koopa
