Dragon Ball Super Dope - A Dragon Ball Podcast
Sep 27, 2026 · 56 min · 14 segments
It's time for another installment of the Dragon Ball opening theme series, and this time Kyle is tackling arguably the most iconic Dragon Ball song ever recorded: **"CHA-LA HEAD-CHA-LA."** We go back…
So let's pull up the Kagayama version of the song.
I'm going to go through the lyrics as well as we listen to them just to give you an English translation roughly in case you're not familiar with them from the subtitles for whatever reason.
Maybe you just like the dub.
Here we go.
Such an underappreciated bass line.
Breaking through the shining clouds, I'm gonna fly away.
Spreading through my body, I feel the power through my soul.
Kicked in the face, this earth is mad as a fire brigade.
Can you feel it building up for her to blow? Whoa.
If there ever was a dinosaur...
This is where shit gets goofy.
If there ever was a dinosaur in a mound of icicles, I would train it to ride a ball.
Silly.
Cha-la, fucking head-cha-la.
No matter what, if ever anything could happen...
Nothing can stop me now.
Cha-la, fucking head, cha-la.
Oh, my heart just keeps sparking up like a ball of flame.
Oh, yes, it's make me fired up.
Spark, spark, sparking.
Mr. Sparkle invading my brain.
Also, maybe some mild racism.
So we're going to fade it out there.
