DONNY:
Somehow the sewers
Seem a little cleaner
From the very moment I see April come in the lair
It feels like someone
Lit a roaring fire
But it's just the glow I get when April comes in the lair
The battered stairway
Stands a little prouder
And Mikey's artificial flowers might even bloom
I can feel my heartbeat
Beat a little louder
The very moment I see April come in the lair


LEO, RAPH & MIKEY:
The neon lighting
Seems a little brighter
I can hear the arcade machines playin' a gorgeous song


MIKEY:
Plus grouchy Raphy
Seems a bit politer
It's his way of saying "Well done bro, you've won where I can't"


LEO:
The day you met us
Was a hidden blessing
You brought new love and light and laughter
into our gloom


DONNY:
But I can feel my heartbeat
Beat a little faster


ALL FOUR:
And I can swiftly shed the strain of training
The very moment her first footstep appears


DONNY:
The very moment I see April come in the lair

(Musical Interlude)

ALL FOUR:
The dojo's tree's leaves
Seem a little thicker
From the very moment Don see April come down the hole
The subway express
Pass a little quicker
Just as if it didn't want to stop at another light

SPLINTER:
My ninja students
Are now kids no longer
They miss just having you around and that old rapport


ALL FOUR:
But I can feel my heartbeat
Beat a little stronger
And I can swiftly shed the strain of training
The very moment her first footstep appears
The very moment I see April!

La-da, da, da-da. Dadada-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da! Da! Dada-da-da-dada
Da, da, da, da. Dada-da-da-dada
Da-da-da-da-da! Da! Dada-da-da-dada

The battered stairway
Stands a little prouder
And Mikey's artificial flowers might even bloom
I can feel my heartbeat
Beat a little louder
And I can swiftly shed the strain of training
The very moment her first footstep appears
The very moment I see April come in the room.
Another win towards proper cartoon romances, this time with the :iconnickelodeon-plz: TMNT, as Donny openly admits his love for April - that is so blatantly obvious in the Lair - in song.

Based on the song "When Mabel Comes" from Mack & Mabel with Robert Preston & Bernadette Peters (Sadly I cannot find the track on YouTube, so I cannot provide you with the original track)
