Team Rocket Forever (Japanese: ロケット団よ永遠に Roketto-dan yo Eien ni, lit. Rocket Gang Forever) is a song sung by Jessie, James and Meowth. It was composed by Hirokazu Tanaka, with lyrics by Takeshi Shudō.
It has been used in several episodes: The Song of Jigglypuff, the beginning of Go West, Young Meowth, Same Old Song and Dance (with some minor changes), Training Daze (replaced by Double Trouble in the dub), Unova's Survival Crisis! (as the ending theme during the first Japanese airing), and New Places... Familiar Faces (removed in the dub).

Jessie and James:
You know us as Team Rocket and we fight for what is wrong.
We're tired of our motto so we thought we try a song!
Jessie:
Jessie!
James:
James!
Jessie and James:
The speed of light, prepare to fight!
Meowth:
Meowth, that's right!
James:
I am the handsome one!
Jessie:
I'm the gorgeous one!
Jessie and James:
Looking good is lots of fun. We get some things wrong, but we keep rolling along!
All:
We want to capture Pikachu. We hope to do it soon. And when we do we'll be the new stars of this... cartoon!
