Can you tell me how old Dan might have done it
|
If he'd been here now, holy cow
|
My stars might have been read on the planet Mars
|
Because I don't have foresight to see
|
If we still be together in the twenty first
|
In the twenty first century
|
|
He's our flying ace, pilot of the future
|
In an endless space, holy cow
|
My eyes never saw a rocket that was quite that size
|
Because I don't have the energy
|
To be cat and mouse for the champions
|
For the champions of destiny
|
|
So long captain Dan
|
I fail to see what motivates your hands
|
Goodbye restless night
|
You know I loved Dan Dare, but I couldn't make his flight
|
So long, so long
|
|
Dan Dare doesn't know it
|
He doesn't know it
|
He doesn't know it
|
But I liked the Meko
|
