Leave It All To Me is the theme song for Nickelodeon series "iCarly," sung by Miranda Cosgrove with Drake Bell playing the lead guitar and providing background vocals. It's shown during the opening credits of the series. However, due to time constraints, the full theme song has never been played in its entirety on the show, although an instrumental version of the bridge played in the background in the first season.
Lyrics
In 5, 4, 3, 2...
(Drum beat starts)
I know, you see
Somehow the world will change for me
and be so wonderful
Live life, breathe air
I know somehow we're gonna get there
and feel so wonderful
I will make you change your mind
these things happen all the time
And it's all real
I'm telling you just how I feel
So wake up the members of my nation
It's your time to be
There's no chance unless you take one
And the time to see the brighter side of every situation
Some things are meant to be, So
gimme your best and leave the rest to me
I know
its time
To raise the hand that draws the line
And be so wonderful
Golden sunshine
I know somehow it's gonna be mine
And feel so wonderful
Show me what you can become
There's a dream in everyone
And it's all real
I'm telling you just how I feel
So wake up the members of my nation
It's your time to be
There's no chance unless you take one
And the time to see the brighter side of every situation
Somethings are meant to be, So
gimme your best and leave the rest to me
Leave it all to me
(Leave it all to me)
So make it right (Maybe your right) and see it through
(You gotta) know you won't be free until you
Wake up the members of my nation
It's your time to be
There's no chance unless you take one
And the time to see the brighter side of every situation
Somethings are meant to be
So give it your best and leave the rest to me
Leave it all to me
(Leave it all to me)
Leave it all to me
Just leave it all to me
Video
A music video of "Leave It All To Me" was released in 2007. Miranda Cosgrove, Jennette McCurdy, Jerry Trainor, and Nathan Kress appear in the video, with Cosgrove providing the main vocals. Drake Bell appears a few times playing the guitar. The video features faux iCarly.com videos showing fans singing the theme.
Notes
- The version that airs in Belgium and the Netherlands is slightly different than the one originally recorded. While still in English, it appears to be sung at a higher pitch. This is probably because it's sped up (probably to make the episodes shorter). But the version on TeenNick is the original with subs, thus it's not sped up.
- This song was used in "Zoey 101" as Lola's ringtone in the episode "Roller Coaster".
- Carly played it on the episode "iBeat the Heat".
