The Road Runner Show Theme is, as its title suggests, the theme song used for the intro and credits sequences on The Road Runner Show.

It was later combined with "This Is It" (the theme song from The Bugs Bunny Show) to be the theme song for The Bugs Bunny Road Runner Hour; in this form, the first verse was omitted.

The song was parodied on Histeria! as "Big Fat Road Baby", a character jingle that typically prefaced sketches in which Big Fat Baby was prominently featured.

Lyrics[]

Original version[]

If you're on a highway and Road Runner goes "beep beep,"
Just step aside or you might end up in a heap
Road Runner, Road Runner runs on the road all day
Even the Coyote can't make him change his ways

Road Runner, the coyote's after you
Road Runner, if he catches you you're through
Road Runner, the coyote's after you
Road Runner, if he catches you you're through

That coyote is really a crazy clown,
When will he learn that he never can mow him down?
Poor little Road Runner never bothers anyone,
Just runnin' down the roads is his idea of havin' fun

[repeat second verse]

Big Fat Road Baby[]

BFB just imitated Road Runner

When Big Fat Baby runs down the road real fast,
Puddles of drool are found where he just passed
Betcha that Big Fat Baby's proud of his work
As he zooms along like a supersonic jet

Big Fat Baby, you're lookin' pretty strange,
Big Fat Baby, your diaper needs a change

Father Time is tryin' to catch that kid,
But the poor little guy goes spinning into a skid,
Big Fat Baby, he doesn't have the tiniest clue,
Just zoomin' along and all he can say is "goo"

Big Fat Baby, Father Time is after ya,
Big Fat Baby, on Histeria!
