Grrreetings, everybody! TPrower once again!
The Animaniacs reboot has officially arrived, and I already love it! Even though we only really have sketches with the Warners and Pinky and the Brain, it's still making me laugh and grin, especially since they're fully aware of the stigma people have with reboots, lol. Animaniacs has always been the king of on-the-nose Hollywood/pop culture comedy.
As the title implies, this is actually a parody of the theme song made in tribute to three of my favorite Let's Players: Chuggaaconroy, ProtonJon, and NintendoCapriSun, collectively known as TheRunawayGuys. Chugga himself sang a parody of the Animaniacs theme during a Let's Play of New Super Luigi U (/watch/gfIHC7BHQ8eHH (The moment as uploaded by Great Moments in LPing)), and I was actually inspired to write my own full lyrics in the comments, which people seemed to like. XD
As the premiere of the Animaniacs reboot drew nearer, I realized my original lyrics were a bit dated, so I decided to revise them, and then record a full cover of them, as both a tribute to Animaniacs and TheRunawayGuys. I hope you guys enjoy, and if the trio sees this, I hope they do, too. =)

Lyrics:
It's time for Runaway-niacs
And they’re gamers to the max
So just sit back and relax
As they overreact
They’re Runaway-niacs
Come join the Let's Play Brothers
Chugga, ProtonJon, and Tim
Just for fun, they play games full of
Madness to the brim
They like to keep you laughing
Based on a simple whim
But there's no truce when hell breaks loose
It's either sink or swim
They’re Runaway-niacs
Tim is nice and Chugga yaks
Jon is brimming with wisecracks
But they’ve got each other’s backs
They’re Runaway-niacs
Now be it Mario Party
Where there's always a Chance Time
Or rounds of Wheel of Fortune
Where they bankrupt on a dime
Fortune Street and Let’s Plays
And guest stars in their prime
Their wins and fails bring cheers and wails
It's practically a crime!
They’re Runaway-niacs
And their gaming skills aren't lax
They’re gamers to the max
So tune in and grab some snacks
They’re Runaway-ny
Totally insaney
(Chugga's puns are lame-y)
Runaway-niacs
Those are the facts
