was created by Mickey Dolenz, a member of the
Monkees, an American rock band.
Theme Song Lyrics
Ready, Steady are you set?
For Metal Mickey,
He's the cutest robot yet, Metal Mickey.
He's a lot of fun
(Fun)
He weighs a half a ton,
(I weigh a half a ton)
He'll be your number one
(I'll be your number one)
But look out, look out!
Electronic Pile
(an electronic pile)
With a silicon smile
(with a silicon smile)
He's got a lot of style
(I've got a lot of style)
So look out, look out!
Ready, Steady, are you set?
For Metal Mickey
(Boo-boo bee doo)
He's the cutest robot yet, Metal Mickey.
He's a lot of fun
(I'm alot of fun)
He weighs a half a ton
(I weigh a half a ton)
He'll be your number one
(I'll be your number one)
So look out, look out!
(guitar music)
So look out, look out!
Ready, Steady are you set?
For Metal Mickey,
He's the cutest robot yet, Metal Mickey.
He's a lot of fun
(Fun)
He weighs a half a ton,
(I weigh a half a ton)
He'll be your number one
(I'll be your number one)
But look out, look out!
He's Metal Mickey!
