Babs Seed (song)

Babs Seed is a song sung by the Cutie Mark Crusaders in the episode One Bad Apple about their eponymous antagonist, Babs Seed. It is presented in the style of a 1960s- 70s saturday morning cartoon musical sequence, a la The Archie Show? or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scooby-Doo,_Where_Are_You! Scooby- Doo, Where Are You!]? with retro motifs, a malt shop and an old fashioned theater setting the stage for humorous chase scenes (again, showcasing the CMC's talents as a "Josie and The Pussycats "- esque rock band, an identity previously touched upon in their Cutie Mark Crusaders theme song). The song was released in a compressed (low-quality) form to Entertainment Weekly prior to the episode's airing.

Lyrics

 * [Cutie Mark Crusaders]
 * Yeah, yeah, yeah
 * Yeah, yeah, yeah
 * Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 * [Apple Bloom]
 * First, we thought that Babs was so really, really sweet
 * A new friend to have and it seemed like such a treat
 * [Scootaloo]
 * But then, we found the truth; she's just a bully from the east
 * She went from Babs, yeah, to a bully and a beast
 * [Apple Bloom]
 * Everywhere we turn, she's just a step ahead
 * [Cutie Mark Crusaders]
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, what we gonna do?
 * Got a bully on our tail
 * Gotta hide, we gotta bail
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, if she's after you
 * Gotta run, we gotta flee
 * Gotta hurry, don't you see?
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad seed


 * Yeah, yeah, yeah
 * Yeah, yeah, yeah
 * Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 * [Apple Bloom]
 * Hidin' from a bully, we know it isn't right
 * But the Cutie Mark Crusaders, we aren't lookin' for a fight
 * [Scootaloo]
 * Oh, she'll go home soon, and then we'll have some peace again
 * But for now, we're staying out of her way 'til then
 * [Apple Bloom]
 * Everywhere we turn, she's just a step ahead


 * [Cutie Mark Crusaders]
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, what we gonna do?
 * Got a bully on our tail
 * Gotta hide, we gotta bail
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, if she's after you
 * Gotta run, we gotta flee
 * Gotta hurry, don't you see?


 * Why so mean? Why so crude?
 * Why so angry? Why so rude?
 * Can't you be nice? Can't we be friends?
 * Isn't it sad this is how it all ends?
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad
 * Babs Seed, Babs Seed, she's just a bad, bad seed
