Synopsis[]
Gather around, sidekicks! No main character energy here! It's time we show some love to our beloved sidekicks. Where would Cricket Green from Big City Greens, Anne Boonchoy from Amphibia, Luz Noceda from Owl House, and Molly McGee from The Ghost and Molly McGee be without their trusty sidekicks? This is the sidekicks anthem!
Lyrics[]
Intro[]
Polly: Gather round, sidekicks! This is a no-protagonist zone!
Remy: Let's see. We got Soos Ramirez, Perry the Platypus, Hop Pop? You're more of a... kindly elder.
Hop Pop: What? No, I'm a young, sprightly sidekick!
Polly: Ugh. Just let him have this.
Rapping[]
Remy:
What up, all my peeps? It's your best friend, Remy
Here with all these folks you've seen on your telly
We may not be the stars and heroes,
But time to expose it, everyone knows!
Sidekicks, kicks, kicks
Are the secret sauce you need inside the mix, mix, mix
If you're like, how's the lead so cool and slick? Slick, slick
Polly:
It's because they got back up from sidekicks! (Remy: Go, Polly!)
We bring the jokes, (Remy: Jokes!) we know how to slay (Remy: Slay!)
Our B storylines
Both:
Help improve on the A
Polly:
When heroes fall down, we'll be right there
'Cause we care
Remy:
Anne, Luz, and Molly (Polly: Aw!)
Meet Libby, King, and Polly (Polly: 'Sup?!)
Star would be dead (Polly: What?!)
Without Marco and Pony Head (Polly: Sidekicks!)
Polly:
When things go bad, you'll be so glad
You got your boy, Launchpad!
And don't forget we got a lot of cuties
Like Rufus, and Pascal, and
Both:
Sidekick Hooty!
Polly:
And someday, you'll say, whoa-whoa-whoa! Oh-whoa-whoa-whoa!
That sidekick needs a spin-off show! A spin-off show!
And we'll be flattered, but say, no, no, no! Oh, no, no, no!
Because we love to play our part, bro!
That's why we love to be sidekicks, kicks, kicks
Remy:
Scale of 1 to 5, we all deserve a 6, 6, 6
Polly:
If you're like, how's the lead so cool and sick? (Remy: Uh!) Sick, (Remy: Tell 'em!) sick
Polly and Cricket:
It's because
Cricket:
We're just naturally cool and--
[music stops]
Remy: Cricket! What are you doing here?! This is not your song!
Cricket: Ah, come on, Remy! Can I just sing one line?!
Remy: No! You're not a sidekick, Cricket! Get out of here!
Cricket: Sorry, my bad. I'm sorry, sidekicks. All right. Bye. ...You sure you don't want me to stay?
Remy: NO! We'll hang out later!
Cricket: Okay, okay! Yeesh!
[music resumes]
Both:
It's because they appreciate sidekicks, kicks
Hop Pop:
SIDEKICKS! (Remy: Wha?!)
Hop Pop:
Mic drop!

Trivia[]
- This is the second song where Remy is a lead singer, the first was Thinking Is Hard.
- This is the first Broken Karaoke installment to parody a song from a Disney+ original movie.
- When Polly is rapping about spin-off shows, Remy vocalizing in the background is actually his screaming reused from "Remy Rescue".
- This was uploaded on YouTube the day after Amphibia aired its final episode on Disney Channel.
- At the end of the song, Hop Pop asks Goofy if he knows him from somewhere, alluding to the fact that they are both voiced by Bill Farmer.
Errors[]

- This also happened when Polly said "When things go bad, you'll be so glad you got your boy, Launchpad" has been transcribed as "When things go bad, you'll be so glad you got your boy, [inaudible]" on both YouTube and DisneyNOW.
