Comics & cartoon fans were given a Christmas present in December 1995 with the release of "Saturday Morning Cartoons' Greatest Hits", a collection of theme songs from cartoons spanning from the 60s to 1991 (Ren & Stimpy).
For the 1967 Spider-Man theme, the track was given to punk rock icons and native New Yorkers, The Ramones, who went animated themselves.
When the Ramones reprised the 2nd verse, the lyrics are on the screen, enabling viewers to see what the lyrics really were.
Four years earlier, MTV doll (and the 518's own) Martha Quinn tried to recite the lyrics on the air, and fumbled, probably due to nerves. Note I said recite, not sing. You're forgiven, Martha.
