The legend also states that his braded rat tail is made up of not just his hair..but his band mates hair intertwined as well. Together they make one giant rat tail that summons said powers.

Not a 90's kid? While this is definitely the best of her two theme songs, it's also worth seeing the other Carmen Sandiego '90s theme from the other TV show if that's your kind of thing. :) Though I'd also say Chip and Dale most of the Disney cartoons had some great themes as well. Chip and Dale get special mention for the Magnum PI meets Indian Jones fashion choices.
