All the Transformers from the original Generation 1 TV show, sung to the tune of The Mexican Hat Dance! Inspired by Yakko Warner's song in Animaniacs.
A lot of people have commented that I missed various characters. The definitive list is "All the G1 characters that had a toy at the time the song was written."
So at the time I wrote the song, there was an Arcee toy but no Alpha Trion, for example. So that's why various G1 characters are not in the song.
This song was recorded in one go, after many, many rehearsals, with no editing the speed. Yes, I still have the lyrics memorized. No, I cannot get through through the part listing 20 gestalt characters at once any more without stumbling. That part was the hardest part of the whole song to get right.
When I first uploaded this video there wasn't room for lyrics on youtube but now there are. Please note that these names are (mainly) organized by season and faction. Also if you're a fan of season 4, placing "Triggerhappy" next to "Cerebros" was an intentional joke, since Cerebros is a pacifist.
