"Defeat Megalon"

"Defeat Megalon" Performed by Masato Shimon Composed by Riichiro Manabe Arranged by Riichiro Manabe Lyrics by Jun Fukuda

"Defeat Megalon" (メガロをやっつけろ,   Megaro o Yattsukero) is a promotional song recorded by Masato Shimon for the 1973 film Godzilla vs. Megalon. Released as a B-side on the single of "Godzilla and Jet Jaguar: Punch! Punch! Punch!", it was composed and arranged by Riichiro Manabe with lyrics written by Megalon director Jun Fukuda. Unlike its A-side, however, "Defeat Megalon" is never used in the film itself.

Defeat Godzilla!" Far beneath the sea Sleeping 3,000 kilometers in the ground Megalon, Megalon, Megalon With a horn like a helmet With wings like armor And two hands like drills Awaken, Megalon Megalon, Megalon, Megalon, yeah! Far beyond our nation On an island 4,000 kilometers south Godzilla, Godzilla, Godzilla With dorsal fins like saws With a tail like a cannon And two hands like hammers Don't give in, Godzilla Godzilla, Godzilla, Godzilla, yeah! "Go, Godzilla! Confront Megalon and protect the peace of the Earth!" If Godzilla runs, then Megalon flies A back-and-forth battle Godzilla, Godzilla, Godzilla With fists like a tank He happily swings punches Knock out with jabs and uppercuts Do your best, Godzilla Godzilla, Godzilla, Godzilla, yeah!
Note: the lyrics included with the original vinyl release incorrectly indicate the pronunciation of 行け as いけ (ike) rather than ゆけ (yuke).
