The Powerpuff Girls theme song (2024)

The Powerpuff Girls Theme Song is the song that plays as the intro to every episode of the original 1998 version of the Cartoon Network animated TV show The Powerpuff Girls. The song is performed by the show's Narrator, Tom Kenny.

Intro[]

The intro begins as Professor Utonium puts sugar, spice, and "everything nice" into the concoction, each ingredient is accompanied by a background of the signature color of the ingredient's respective Powerpuff Girl. In addition of Chemical X, Professor Utonium uses a stirrer to mix and explodes. The trio introduce him. In a heart-patterned background, the trio pops up. The trio flies. In a red background, we see a full panorama of the villains. The trio stared and the villains frowned. The trio and the villains rush. The trio fight all villains and stand together on villains' heads. The show's logo appears.

Lyrics[]

Narrator:
Sugar, spice, and everything nice, these were the ingredients chosen to create a perfect little girl.
But Professor Utonium accidentally added an extra ingredient to the concoction--
Chemical X
Thus, The Powerpuff Girls were born
Using their ultra-super powers
Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup
Have dedicated their lives to fighting crime
And the forces of evil!
(theme music)

Trivia[]

• The theme song plays before every episode, except for "See Me, Feel Me, Gnomey" and "A Documentary".
• In the show's series finale, "The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!!", the theme song was restored in high definition.
  • The high-definition version also includes the addition of Sedusa and The Boogie Man to the scrolling pan of all the villains.
  • Another edit is that when The Powerpuff Girls stand on the pile of villains at the end of the song, Mojo Jojo is missing a tooth, Abracadaver and Snake's facial expressions are changed, and Junior's entire face is visible, whereas before, it was cut off screen.
• There is also an error in the shot where the girls are standing on the pile of villains where Mojo Jojo's brain is green instead of pink. However, this was fixed in the HD version.
• In the show's special episode, "Dance Pantsed Revolution", the song was re-animated yet again, this time, in CGI-animation.
• When Professor Utonium puts sugar, spice, and everything nice into the concoction, each ingredient is accompanied by a background of the signature color of the ingredients' respective Powerpuff Girl.
  • Bubbles is considered the "sugar" of the team, because of her sweetness. When Professor Utonium poured sugar into the concoction, the background was blue.
  • Buttercup is considered the "spice" of the team, because of her spicy attitude. When Professor Utonium poured spice into the concoction, the background was green.
  • Blossom is considered the "everything nice" of the team, because of how nice she is. When Professor Utonium poured everything nice into the concoction, the background was pink.
• Sedusa is the only recurring villain and not to appear in the pan shot of all the villains.
  • However, this is changed in the high-definition version, where she is placed behind Mojo Jojo.
• When Buttercup kicks Him, a bunch of drops of blood come out of his mouth. This is one of the girls' rare occasions, when gore is shown in The Powerpuff Girls.
• Some episodes, include scenes and gags, where a character will perform a parody on the theme song. These are done in episodes such as "The Rowdyruff Boys", when Mojo Jojo was creating The Rowdyruff Boys "Twisted Sister", when The Powerpuff Girls were creating Bunny, "Oops, I Did It Again", when Professor Utonium was creating The Run of the Mill Girls, and "West in Pieces", when the Western version of Professor Utonium was creating The Steamypuff Girls.
• The Powerpuff Girls sang the instrumental part of their theme song in the episode "The Powerpuff Girls' Best Rainy Day Adventure Ever", while playing pretend. Bunny sang the instrumental in "Twisted Sister".
• During the "flight entrance" sequence, each girls had their individual tunes during their respective entrances:
  • Blossom has the standard trumpet tune that is mainly heard throughout the theme itself.
  • Bubbles' tune is a glockenspiel version of the theme.
  • Buttercup's tune is a combination of a rhythm guitar and a trumpet playing a much different piece.
