Mr. Hockey’s Back (1992) Pittsburgh Penguins skate for joy, Mr. Hockey’s back to destroy, the other teams don’t have a chance, because Mr. Hockey’s back at last. You see him skating up the ice, you turn around he’s out of sight, he covers the distance between him and the goal, then you hear, HE SHOOTS AND SCORES! City of Champions weep no more, Mr. Hockey will restore, the Pittsburgh team to the place, at the top of the NHL to stay. City of Pittsburgh leap for joy, Mario is back to destroy, the other teams don’t have a chance, because our star is back at last. He’s got the magic touch we need, and he’s also got the speed, to make Steel City proud of their team, they will be, the Stanley Cup Champions of ‘93. |
The Cup (1993) It is silver It is gold It’s the most celebrated trophy in the NHL. What is it? It is the Stanley Cup. The last team to win it was the Pittsburgh Penguins true, the team of Steel City and they won it in 1992. They lost it in 1993 to the Montreal Canadians, but they will get it again in 1994 and reclaim the title of STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS! So Pittsburgh don’t give up on them now, they need us more then ever to make the 1993-94 season even better. |

The Eyes of A Champion (1995) Mario has beautiful eyes, they’re as blue as the sea, eyes that are expressive, when they look at me, I see a champion. I see a man of character, of incredible strength and skill, a man who’s not a quitter, who loves his game still. He’s a man of gentle ways, of incredible calm and poise, a man who doesn’t lose his temper, unless Carry Frazser’s on the ice. His eyes are as cold as ice, his words hard as steel, but when he sits down to cool off a bit, he says “It’s no big deal.” So when you see this champion, out on the ice again, look into his eyes, and you’ll read, the story of the NHL’s king. |

Mario! You're simply the best, better than all the rest better than anyone, anyone we’ve seen yet you wear the C, and we hang on every word you say, hang up the skates and the team would be dead. In your heart we see the champion you are, in your eyes we see you’re love for the game, as long as you’re here in Pittsburgh, we’ve got our chance. Mario! When you left the team lost control, you were our heart and our soul, now you’re back and we have life, Oh Mario don't let us go! MARIO YOU’RE THE BEST! |
Part of a Game (1993) What would I give to be where you are? What would I pay just to see you in action? What would do to see you score a goal? When is it my turn? Wouldn’t I love, to explore to your would of the ice. Mario Lemieux, you’re Pittsburgh’s star, and I love you. I don’t know when, I don’t know how, but I’ll get to the Arena somehow, watch and you’ll see, this spring I’ll be, part of a game. |

King of the Ice (1996) Mario Mario, you’re the king of the NHL, yo hey, yeah yeah yeah yeah When you came to the Penguins in 1984, we knew that Gretskey would be king no more, because you took the crown right out of his hand, and in 1991 it was Pittsburgh’s gloryland. You were eighteen when you took to the ice, and we could see it in your eyes, determination to be the best, the NHL would ever see. Montreal doesn’t call you Le Magnifique, for nothing believe me, when you took to the ice you were a young prince, first game, first shift, first shot, score! Now it’s 1996, and we want to get out of this jinx, so shake off injury, put the crown on, and lead us to the Cup one more time. Don’t give up your crown without a fight, listen to me it’s yours by right, you won it back in ’84, and Gretskey will get that crown no more. The ice is your domain now, don’t let your crown down, come back, take up your crown again, and show Pittsburgh that you’re still around. Your record is that of a champion you’re the NHL’s king undisputed, just you wait and you will see, you will be in the Hall of the Fame. Pittsburgh, who’s the king of the NHL? tell me, Mario Lemieux! Who’s the Magnificent One? tell me, Mario Lemieux! Who’s the Prince of Velemard? Super Mario Yeah! |
