The SpongeBob SquarePants "Closing Theme" was composed by Steve Belfer. As the name suggests, it is used in the end credits of the show. The track has two versions, which have both been used as background music in some episodes. The track usually plays when someone does something repeatedly, or does something silly.

There is a futuristic and a primitive version in "SB-129" as well as "B.C. Strut" by Nicolas Carr and Steve Belfer in "Ugh."

This song is mostly played in E major.

Alternate titles: "Close," "Close #3," "Close Theme 2," "Closing," "Closing #1," "Closing #3," "Closing Theme 3," "Closing Theme2," "Closing#3," "SpongeBob Theme"
