(Intro: A cool, snapping finger rhythm starts, followed by a light, rhythmic piano. A walking double-bass creeps in, slowly building the tension.)[Verse 1](Suave, finger-snapping rhythm)Well, that robot has such big gears, dearAnd he keeps them pearly brightJust a shiny, polished chassis, dearBut he’s glowing through the night.[Verse 2]When the reactor starts its humming, dearAnd the isotopes start to playThen you know that Mr. AtomoIs about to save the day.[Verse 3](Piano starts to swing harder)On the sidewalk, Sunday morning, don't you knowA trail of neutrons can be foundIs it science? Is it magic?When Atomo’s in town.[Verse 4](Brass section adds punchy "stabs")From the laboratory basement, dearTo the bright lights of the parkThere’s a warm, atomic shimmerIn the middle of the dark.[Bridge](Tempo increases, big band swing in full effect)Now the Geiger counter’s clicking!And the dials are spinning 'round!Yes, that dapper metal fellowHas the slickest beat in townOh, Lotte Lenya! The scientists!They’re all checking every core!But Atomo’s just a-swingingThrough the laboratory doorLook out, old Atomo’s back!He’s got the power!He’s got the style!Yes, Atomo’s back in town!(Final sharp brass hit: BAP!)
