Marvel Started the Fire

To the tune of Billy Joel's "We Didn't Start the Fire":

Steve Rogers sucker-punches Hitler in the jaw
Invaders beat up Nazis
Cap and Bucky lost at sea
War's done, Allies won, Invaders fall apart.

Fantastic Four go to space
Namor now hates the human race
Bruce Banner hulks out and Doom cries for vengeance
Spidey's bitten on the hand
Thor and hammer, Iron Man
Doctor Strange, X-Men, assembling Avengers

We didn't start the fire, it was always burning since the world's been turning
we didn't start the fire, no we didn't light it but we're trying to fight it

And the rest is history
