Lyrics
Tater: Hey! Another day in my old 'hood!
Summer's startin', and it's gonna be so good!
Hey, oh hey!
I was gonna be so cool
Then you all moved in and got me looking like a fool...again
Everyone: ¡Oye! ¡Primos!
Tater: Why you all up in my face?
Everyone: ¡Oye! ¡Primos!
Tater: Get up out my space!
Everyone: ¡Oye! ¡Primos!
Tater: You're wearin' out my brain. You're driven' me insane. Not the roll call again!!!!

Trivia
- The exclamation "Oye" is the Spanish equivalent of "Hey!", meaning that the title in English is "Hey Cousins!".
- It has been argued by native Spanish speakers that the title should be "Oigan Primos" as it refers to more than one person, as "Oye" can be more accurately translated to "Hey you" in the context in which it is said. Series creator Natasha Kline stated that this particular statement was due to how she was brought up.
- The intro became controversial to the point that it was removed from both Twitter and Facebook, though it is still available to view on YouTube.
