The lyric is, "Eat some potatoes."
A skill in which Matt is proficient.

I was always pretty sure it was "I can slay a tornado". I guess whether it's slam, slap, slay, etc, it'd just be some incredible feat, like drying out a sea, yeauhhhhh.
Point is, when he lives in the moment, ain't no "ain't no" in him.

"Slap a tornado" and it is just something impossible. The whole song is that by living in the moment he can do anything.
I was more shocked that it is apparently "there ain't no "ain't knowing" in me" but it does make some weird sense, I think.

I always found it weird that this theme was coined in 2002. It was released on WWF Forceable Entry as The Hardy Boyz theme.
I do remember in their ghost written book, they mentioned that around that time they were looking for new entrance music.

I remember some game had the Hardyz using an instrumental version of it for entrance music, and not just Matt. It was a bit odd. |

Nowadays, it would go something like this:
"Oh yeah!
Food!
I won't eat a tomato
I can fry up some cheese, yeah
When it comes to the main course
There ain't no (ain't no) in me."

I do remember in their ghost written book, they mentioned that around that time they were looking for new entrance music. I remember some game had the Hardyz using an instrumental version of it for entrance music, and not just Matt. It was a bit odd. Close. They used two different dubbed themes. One used only on SD Shut Your Mouth, and another used on the Gamecube game WM 17, RAW 2, and Crush Hour. Matt had an entirely different one on Crush Hour though. See here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5Qd3ydL-7YI swear by it, as I remember it, that Matt used some sort of instrumental theme for the first week or two when he debuted the Version 1.0 gimmick. Then he got the "slap a tomato" theme. Source: I'm a hardcore Hardy mark. |

Really though, Matt Hardy Version 1 was a gimmick ahead of its time. Matt Facts were Chuck Norris jokes before Chuck Norris jokes.

Only beaten to it by nearly every post, but I'll say it anyways.
The actual lyrics are as follows,
"OHHHH YEAAHHHH
I can EAT a tornado!
I can swim in gravy!
When I live for the buffet,
There's no one greater than me!"
Matt Fact: Matt Hardy enjoys food.

Funny, this song came in my head as I was showering today.
Freaky.

I remember some game had the Hardyz using an instrumental version of it for entrance music, and not just Matt. It was a bit odd. I don't think it was exactly that. But in some of the games, THQ didn't want to shell out to the production library that their "Loaded" theme belonged to, and the sound-alike that was made for the game used a similar key/tone to Live For The Moment. Somewhere between 2002 and 2007 (I don't remember which exact instances in which exact games, though RAW 2 seemed to be a bad offender), THQ seemed to be really cheap about licensed music in the WWE games. I remember the Dudleys having gone the whole way back to their old "Ollie Stalefish" theme (Spike's theme) in one of the games, and Tajiri having a sound-alike theme to his production theme too. Even RVD and Lita had been reverted to their old themes as opposed to their Forcable Entry themes. |

We also had the crappy dubbed themes for Victoria and Stacy Kiebler, and it was the start of the random chain of Ric Flair not having his (royalty free) real theme until SvR06 |
