6. DUKE NUKEM'S ISLAND THEME SONG (by Don Chin)
   
   Just sit right back and you'll hear a tale,
   A tale of some fateful toys
   That started from this office shelf
   Owned by men who act like boys
   
   The mate was a bad-ass named Duke,
   The skipper some guy named "Q".
   Eight action figures went flying that day
   After their owners had some brew
   
   The play started getting rough
   The tiny toys were tossed
   If not for the diligent janitor
   The figures would be lost, the figures would be lost.
   
   The toys set ground on the shore of this uncharted office aisle
   With Bunny Bugs, Some guy named "Q",
   The TiVo guy and Buzz Light
   A Trooper Bug
   The Wallace and Gromit Clan
   Here on Duke Nukem's Aisle
   
   So this is the tale of the plastic guys,
   They're here for a darn long time,
   They'll have to make the best of things,
   Forced to stand in line.
   
   Gun totin' Duke and Mr. Q.,
   Will do their very best,
   To make this place a living hell,
   To anyone who leaves the nest!
   
   No girls, no babes, no women folk,
   Not a single luxury,
   That lucky playboy Ken,
   They'd give anything for a Barbie!
   
   So join us here each week my friends,
   You're sure to get a smile,
   >From this band of plastic guys,
   Here on "Duke Nukem's Isle."
