about

After returning home from his voyage, Bruceman reapplies to the League of Extraordinary Superdoers.

Seeing just how much he's changed, and how much he's accomplished, the League's reactions are drastically different towards Bruceman.

lyrics

Bruceman:
Alright Bruceman, time to nail this interview.
No big deal, just the League of Extraordinary Superdoers.
So what if they rejected me last time?
That was before the training and all of those battles.
I’m ready now.
Time to put on my game face and win this.
Prepare yourself League! Bruceman has arrived!

League Guardian:
The spring in your step,
That look in your eye.
Somethings changed about you,
This I can’t deny.
You look a little stronger,
Different from last time,
You now have what it takes to be,
A powerful ally.

You’re looking like the hero,
You were always meant to be.
A brand new costume, super powers,
Personality.
You may be over-qualified,
As far as I can see,
Come in, sit down, get comfortable,
And welcome to the League.

League Guardian:
Are you ready?

Bruceman:
Yes I’m ready.

League Guardian:
Are you ready?

Bruceman:
I know I’m ready!

League Guardian:
Are you ready for the League and the responsibility? (YEAH!)

League Guardian:
Are you ready?

Bruceman:
Yes I’m ready.

League Guardian:
Are you ready?

Bruceman:
C’mon already!

League Guardian:
Then grab all your gear and come along with me!

If you’re ready for the glory,
then you’re ready for the show,
You’re ready for adventure,
and to fight the biggest foes!
Right this way, follow me,
Your legacy it grows,
As you follow in the footsteps,
Of all the great heroes.

League Guardian: (Spoken)
Let’s look at what you’ve done.

Bruceman:
Please do.

League Guardian:
I see you got in shape. Dropped fifty pounds! Good for you!

Bruceman:
Thanks.

League Guardian:
You lost your friends, the support of your family, and even your prestige? But, you still didn’t give up? That’s quite the spirit.

Bruceman:
It was a hard time.

League Guardian:
After that, you traveled out East? And then what’s this? You fought the Monkey King?

Bruceman:
He was accidentally released.

League Guardian:
That beast is a deadly force! How are you still standing?

Bruceman:
It was a tough fight.

League Guardian:
Well, You have my vote!

Better, stronger, faster, smarter,
This is what I see,
Now you have just what it takes,
At long last you are ready.
You are now the hero,
That you were always meant to be.
Embrace your true calling,
Enlist and join the League.

We heard of your deeds,
How you tamed the great ape,
Turning you away before,
Was a big mistake.
Let’s skip the formality,
Cut through all the red tape,
You’re exactly what we need,
A hero in a mask and cape.

Your powers are exceptional,
I wish that they were mine,
Not hiring you, Would be the greatest crime,
Welcome to our order,
Please do not decline,
Sign right here beneath the X,
And welcome to the big time.
