Avengers Reel - new from the Socks


Brand new from the Socks, the Avengers Reel. Enjoy.

It's a song that's been in the last three previews (Glasgow and Bath) and may stay in the show with a bit of a rewrite. Or it might hit the cutting room floor and end up being part of the audience-in music, we're at that stage of development at the moment.



What's that you say? You want to read all the words? Oh go on then since you asked so nicely...

AVENGERS REEL

Summon The Hulk, Black Widow & Ant Man, Iron Man and Hawkeye
Captain America, Thor & Nick Fury – he’s only got one eye
Get em on board the Helicarrier – it floats up in the sky
The Agents Of Shield are waiting to greet you, then we’ll beat Loki

You talk to Iron Man, and I’ll talk to Loki,
And I’ll talk to Captain America
About how come the women don’t get fillums of their own
So they wait to hear Avengers Assemble

Avengers Assemble tada tada
With Rober-ut Downey Juni-ah
And Scarlet Johanssen uh huh uh huh
And Mark Ruffalo with his shirt off

Samuel L Jackson plays this bloke with a patch on
He’s Nick Fury the super techno spy
Meanwhile Thor is a Viking who’s much more to your liking
Also Hawkeye’s here, but we don’t know why

You’ll get a romance and a bromance
Then some fighting in 3D
You’ll always get some in jokes
And a cameo by Stan Lee
Marvel universe movies
Are all made by Dis-a-nee
And they all have a scene at the end when you are going

There is a Solder, a Winter Soldier
We bring him into things, though he’s not interesting
He is quite plucky, his name is Bucky,
And no-one here has heard of him

There’s a wee man here and his name is Bruce
And he wouldnae say boo to a goose
Make him angry he’s big as a hoose
But the Hulk won’t rip his troosers
   Let the wind blow slow, let the wind blow fast,
But it won’t blow up his incredible ass
His shirt and his socks they may not last
But the Hulk won’t rip his troosers

Sequels abound like a rash on your bum
With these Marvel franchises
If you don’t like the last one there’s lots more to come / And also TV series
    Punisher, Daredevil, Jessica Jones,
Luke Cage and Iron Fist
And the Inhumans and the Defenders
And several more that we’ve missed

So
If it wisnae fer the Avengers where would you be
You’d be watching superheroes made by DC
Though Wonder Woman wisnae bad the rest you neednae see

Cos you know you can trust the Avengers
