When "The Pick of Destiny" was released it was a bomb
And all the critics said that The D was done
The sun had set and the chapter had closed
But one thing no one thought about was The D would rise again
Just like the Phoenix
We'll rise again
Cause the fiery heart of a champion cannot be quelched
By a failure or an embarrassment no way no
And the critics all agreed it was a stinky pile of cheese
But that does not mean that our hearts are not strong
Just like the phoenix
We'll rise again
That's right the phoenix
We'll rise again
Sun shining it's a hell of a day
Riding back and it's headed your way
D's here now we're putting on a show
We're sneaking up climbing into your window
It's the rise of the phoenix
It's the call of attack
And you'll know when you've seen us
Tenacious D is back y'all
Lovemaking all the way to the top
Boots smoking but I'm not gonna stop
Bossa Nova is a beautiful dance
Hot-blooded that's a lots of romance
It's the rise of the phoenix
And we ride with the pack
It's the magic between us
Tenacious D is back
But what if it's true
If Tenacious D has died what will we do
And what will we do
About all the fans who have The D tattoo
They'll have them removed
They'll have to laser off their D tattoos
Tattoos
They'll have to laser off their D tattoos
