LOVE ME SOME COBRA KAI
Copyright 2023 Jody Lynn
One fun Tribute song from a serious Fan ;)
To say that the @CobraKaiSeries made an impact on me is a freaking understatement. ;) Like a spark in the dark, it inspired me to write this lyrical homage to all things Karate Kid and Cobra Kai. It was like time traveling back to simpler times, the music I grew up with and a storyline that resonated with me from '84 until now. It blew the dust off the songwriting left in this heart of mine. :) Mad respect to the cast, crew, writers and musicians who breathed new life into this untouchable story. You're the best around- so I had to send my tribute song to the internet!
​
Enjoy! XOXO, Jody
​
P.S. If you haven't binged the heck out of the @CobraKaiSeries on Netflix, I don't know what rock you've been living under- but it's just the shot in the arm we all need right now. So go do it and "hashbrown" it up.

LYRICS
LOVE ME SOME COBRA KAI
​
Copyright 2023 Jody Lynn
​
Chorus
Love me some Cobra Kai-ai-ai
All up in your eye
There’s no way you can avoid it
Cause it’s too rad to ignore it.
Love me some Cobra Kai-ai-ai
All up in your eye
And there’s no way to fight the feeling
Feels so good, it’s worth repeating.
​
Verse 1
Strike first, strike hard, no mercy, don’t quit
When you step up in the dojo- best be down to flip the script...
Fast cars, fast moves, hot babes and dope kicks
Decades of rivalry over one super cool chick.
​
Fought long, fought hard, Who’s good? Who’s bad?
When we learn Miyagi‘s gone it makes us all really sad…
Fall in, breathe out, cause your sensei says so
Oh yea, sweeping that leg was a really low blow. ;)
​
Chorus
Love me some Cobra Kai- ai-ai
All up in your eye
There’s no way you can avoid it
Cause it’s too rad to ignore it.
Love me some Cobra Kai-ai-ai
All up in your eye
And there’s no way to fight the feeling
Feels so good, it’s worth repeating.
​
Verse 2
Cruel summer, back to school, love lost, love found
When you’re picking up the pieces, your heart barely makes a sound…
No sweat, act tough, Cobra Kai never dies
Deep down you’re all a mess, over Ali with an ‘i”
One girl, two guys, yea the drama never ends
So much is on the line, young hearts are hard to mend…
Yea there’s nothing we can do, as it started long ago
Over a kiss on the cheek and a broken radio.
Chorus
Love me some Cobra Kai- ai-ai
All up in your eye
There’s no way you can avoid it
Cause it’s too rad to ignore it.
Love me some Cobra Kai-ai-ai
All up in your eye
And there’s no way to fight the feeling
Feels so good, it’s worth repeating.
​
Verse 3
Bonsai by day, arcades by night
Never looking for no trouble, end up in a nasty fight...
Reseda vs. Encino - always been the classic rift.
Underdogs and all the bullies- know the way of the fist.
​
Chasing victory all for the glory of love
Okinawa through the Valley- trophies just to rise above…
Punch your mirror, it gets clearer - you’re your own worst enemy
Maybe finally joining forces is your truest destiny. 😉
​
Chorus
Love me some Cobra Kai- ai-ai
All up in your eye
There’s no way you can avoid it
Cause it’s too rad to ignore it.
Love me some Cobra Kai-ai-ai
All up in your eye
And there’s no way to fight the feeling
Feels so good, it’s worth repeating.
Bridge
Co-bra Kai, Hard to look away
Co-bra Kai, Couch surfin’ all day
Co-bra Kai, or Miyagi-do mojo
Co-bra Kai, Pick your dojo, let’s go!
Chorus 2X
Love me some Cobra Kai-ai-ai
All up in your eye
There’s no way you can avoid it
Cause it’s too rad to ignore it.
Love me some Cobra Kai-ai-ai
All up in your eye
And there’s no way to fight the feeling
Feels so good, it’s worth repeating.
Outro
Binge hard, binge fast, rewind and play it back
Addicted to the fix, so we gotta make it last…
Hashbrown it up, we’re already craving more
Hope the story never ends cause it’s one we all adore
It may have retro roots but it still rings true today
Breaking records, smashing speakers and it’s magic’s here to stay!
Love me some Cobra Kai... I know you do too. ;)

about ME
I'm an aspiring songwriter, a lucid dreamer, a mental wanderluster and Mom to two adorable Shorkie doggies, Evie and Nola.
I've been writing songs since I was 15... in the studio creating demos at 16 and have had a few shining musical moments along the way.
I've lived all over the country... from Cali back to Virginia where I grew up. Over the years, I've been lucky to have met some fabulous people that I consider kindred spirits and friends.
I love to write lyrics for others... just to scratch my creative itch and for things I love and care about. So hit me up if you'd like to collaborate -I'd love to hear from ya!
I'm about as good at selfies as Billy Zabka is so cut me some slack. This is my serious face in case you're wondering. LOL
SING Along with me
If you love @CobraKaiSeries on Netflix as much as I do, hit me up if you want to create your own version of this song and I just may post it here!me me up

My SHOUT OUTS
Big Thanks to Ralph Macchio (my preteen crush) to Billy Zabka (my adult crush) ;) haha and to Martin Kove, Courtney Henggeler, Vanessa Rubio, Mary Mouser, Xolo Mariduena, Peyton List, Tanner Buchanan, Jacob Bertrand, Gianni DeCenzo, Griffin Santopietro, Nichole Brown, Paul Walter Hauser and more for their stellar acting. Thanks to Jon Hurwitz, Josh Heald, Hayden McSchlossberg for their rowdy, fresh, yet nostalgic dose of comedic relief we all needed in our lives lately. Thanks to Leo Birenberg and Zach Robinson for composing the sickest soundtrack ever. To Elisabeth Shue, you hold a special place in my heart so I hope we see more of you. And lastly, to Pat Morita - there is no Karate Kid or Cobra Kai without you. Thanks for all you did to teach '80s kids the power of hard work, doing right and being brave in a show long ago. You live on in our hearts!
