“ | That singing is sickening!” |
— Escargoon when Kirby sings his reprise of Kihon wa Maru • Abusement Park |
"Kihon wa Maru" (きほんはまる, First draw a circle) was the original Japanese ending credits theme to Kirby: Right Back at Ya!. This was changed in later episodes with "Kirby ★ Step!." The song was sung by Shanchii, who also sang the intro theme, "Kirby ★ March." The song teaches viewers how to draw Kirby and King Dedede's head.

きほんは まる きほんは まる
まる かいて まる まる かいて まる
ごまかいて まる ごまかいて まる
みぎにちょっとまる ひだりにちょっとまる
したのこっちにもまる したのあっちにもまる
さんかくおにぎりで むむっ ほんたいおにぎりで にこっ
おはよう カービィ はらペこだあ
きほんは まる きほんは まる
たまご かいて まる たまご かいて まる
たまごに ごま まる たまごに ごま まる
まるじゃなくて ぐにや びよよよよんの ぐにや
まんなか ペたん おまんじゅう ちょながいまる
うえにちょっとのまる やっぱさいごはまる
かならず デデデは やってくる
きほんは まる きほんは まる
なんだかんだんまるで おめでとう プププっのプー まるで おめでとう

English
First you draw a circle First you draw a circle
A circle in a circle A circle in a circle
A sesame-shaped circle A sesame-shaped circle
A little circle on the right A little circle on the left
A circle under here A circle under there
A triangle like a rice ball An upside-down triangle like a smile
Good morning! Kirby is hungry
First you draw a circle First you draw a circle
An egg-shaped circle An egg-shaped circle
A sesame-shape in an egg A sesame-shape in an egg
A limp circle shape A curvy line
A bun-shape in the middle A really long circle, a really long circle
A little circle above And finally, still a circle
I promise Dedede will arrive
First you draw a circle First you draw a circle
Everything's a circle, congratulations A circle like in "Pupupu", congratulations
Trivia
- In the episode Abusement Park, Kirby gets the Mike ability and sings this song with a little "poyo accent" at the part of King Dedede's "karaoke contest". During his attempt to do so, a sad-sounding musical horn effect can be heard. Kirby's vocals were retained and separated from the overlapping Japanese cast in the Dub but with a different song as the background tune and the English cast participating in it for their lines.
- The song, particularly the second verse, was sung by Kirby, Tuff and his friends when they were painting the wall at the start of ENeMeE Elementary, in the Japanese version.
- The title and first lines of "Kihon wa Maru" are likely a reference to the intro of Kirby's Adventure.
