Glad I Am (fighting with a buddy) - Glidergun - 09-21-2013

INTRO:
(backing: Glad I am!)
(backing: Glad I am!)
(backing: Glad I am!)
(backing: Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh!)
VERSE 1
Awfully familiar
They try to kill ya,
Every time..
It's a crime
You're getting stronger, (backing: he's gettin' stronger!)
While ever longer,
You resist,
With your two fists
(harmony: enemies cease to exist)
CHORUS 1
It's okay
I'm here to stay,
And I'm glad I am!
Glad I am!
Glad I am!
(backing: I'm chasin' all the bad guys away)
Always alert,
Down in the dirt,
Bringin' the hurt,
And I'm..
Glad I am!
Glad I am!
VERSE 2
I get the picture
They try to hit 'cha
They try to kick ya
When you're down and out
But they don't know ya (backing: yeah, they dunno ya!)
Quite like I know ya
I know .. what you're all about
We'll help each other
Cause you're my brother
We'll win no matter what the odds are..
We'll turn the heat up
Even if we're beat up
We'll stomp our foes without a doubt!
((KEYBOARD SOLO))
VERSE THE THIRD
Keep gettin' wailed on,
But never bailed on,
Till the end,
Got a friend!
I got your back now,
Pick up the slack now,
Never fear,
Army is heeeere!
(backing: fools better run for their lives)
CHORUS 2
I've appeared..
Alive and feared!
Aren'tcha glad I am!
Glad I am!
Glad I am!
(backing: You know we're grabbin' life by the beard)
Sharing our might,
I'll be all right,
Bringing the fight,
And I'm..
Glad I am!
Glad I am!

Yes, it's from a videogame soundtrack. Double Dragon Neon is basically a love letter to the 80s, and has a surprising amount of vocal tracks. The whole thing is good but this track in particular stood out for me as a power song.
What I figure this does is a) power up the target's combat skills and b) increases Doug's coordination with them.
(Bonus: Each of the game's special moves is represented in-game as a song that you put on your training mixtape...and virt actually wrote a short song for each of them. Load up Bomb Toss for 40 seconds of power? Healing Touch for another heal?)
