Blame It on the Rain & Girl You Know It's True

Blame It on the Rain and Girl You Know It's True were two songs that were performed by Milli Vanilli in the episode "Kootie Pie Rocks". Mario and his friends also attempted to perform Girl You Know It's True for Kootie Pie, but they didn't manage to satisfy anybody else. Both songs are actual songs, and were edited out in later airings of the show. This was probably due to Milli Vanilli's revelation as lip synchers.

(lyrics to both songs not here due to copyright restrictions)

However, the entire song, complete with lyrics, was included on Shout! Factory's The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 DVD set, despite the fact the the lyrics were never heard on the show.

Spotlight (hey)
So bright
Shinin' right down on you
