I am confused: Did the UK really get a shortened (as well as edited) version of the next mutation theme?

Could the next mutation theme song situation be like the supermutant legend theme song situation?

Here are the lyrics for both the original and modified versions:

American:

Four green Turtles
Heard the news?
Changed to Mutants by an ooze

Found on a floor
Raised by a rat
Now they're Ninjas
How 'bout that?

Check it out
A fifth one found
Covered with ooze in Chinatown
Sent away, but now she's live
With the rest yeah
That makes five

Na na na na Ninja, Ninja Turtles
Na na na na Ninja, Ninja Turtles

Yeah!

Don't look now, a real bad dude
Painted rude with an attitude
Dragonlord - yeah that's his name
Things are never gonna be the same

Ninja Turtles are on the scene
You mess with green and it's gonna get mean
Ninja Turtles are on the scene
You mess with green and it's gonna get mean

Na na na na Ninja, Ninja Turtles
Na na na na Ninja, Ninja Turtles

British:

Four green Turtles
Heard the news?
Changed to Mutants by an ooze

Found on a floor
Raised by a rat
Now they're heroes
How 'bout that?

Check it out
Another one found
Made her way from Chinatown
With the rest yeah
That makes five
Hero turtles come alive!

Na na na na na na, (hero) hero Turtles
Na na na na na na, (hero) hero Turtles

Yeah!

Also, did Venus really have a fan for a weapon? I have been watching the Next mutation repeats on British TV and the only attack I know Venus can do is magical powers.

If I remember right, I don't think the second verse was played regularly for the American airings either... It's been awhile though I remember them playing the entire song in commercials before the show started.

and I wouldn't call the Japanese theme a "Situation". Practically ever Japanese series has a Full Length Version for the Soundtrack, and the Shortened edit. if not all japanese anime...
