Scott: When I was younger, just a sad little kid My Daddy noticed funny things I did Like shouting orders at my teddy bear I'd lecture teddy to show that I care And I'd really stress over the color red That's when my Daddy said:

X-Babies: What did he say??

Scott: He said, "My boy, I think someday You'll find a way to make your natural tendencies pay You'll be an X-Man! You have a talent for suffering pain! It will pay you to shoulder the blame!

Your temperament's wrong for The FF Avenging would suit you still less Be an X-Man! You'll be a success!

X-Women: Here he is, girls -- the first X-Man Watch him de-cry his fate! Oh my God! He's an X-Man! And he'll always wallow in angst! Now who wants their life saved by angsting mutie scum?

Scott: Ouch! That hurts! Where is my son(s0? Oh, help me! Brooding's no fun! I am an X-Man! I am bemoaning!

And great God how I loathe the career that I've picked! I get off on the pain I self inflict When I start with pity By God, there's no quitting! X-Man! And thought it causes me so much distress Somewhere! Somewhere in space up above I know! I know that my Daddy's proud of me .. Oh, Daddy! 'Cause I am an X-Man and a success! Say, "Bye!" Now, cry!
