Dan Dare (Pilot of the Future)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Can you tell me how old Dan might've done it If he'd been here now, holy cow My stars might've been read on the planet Mars 'Cause I don't have foresight to see If we'll still be together in the twenty-first In the twenty-first century, oh no [Verse 2] He's our flyin' ace, pilot of the future In an endless space, holy cow My eyes never saw a rocket that was quite that size 'Cause I don't have the energy To be cat and mouse for the champions For the champions of destiny, oh no [Pre-Chorus] So long, Captain Dan I fail to see what motivates your hands Goodbye, restless night You know I love Dan Dare, but I couldn't make his flight So long, so long, yeah [Chorus] Dan Dare doesn't know it He doesn't know it, he doesn't know it But I like the Mekon [Guitar Solo] [Pre-Chorus] Oh, so long, Captain Dan I fail to see what motivates your hands Goodbye, restless night You know I love Dan Dare, but I couldn't make his flight So long, so long [Chorus] Dan Dare doesn't know it He doesn't know it, he doesn't know it But I like the Mekon Dan Dare doesn't know it He doesn't know it, he doesn't know it But I like the Mekon Dan Dare doesn't know it He doesn't know it, doesn't know it But I like the Mekon Dan Dare doesn't know it, no he doesn't know it No he doesn't know it, no he doesn't know it But I like the Mekon [Outro] (Dan Dare doesn't know it, no he doesn't know it) (No he doesn't know it, no he doesn't know it) (Dan Dare doesn't know it, no he doesn't know it) (No he doesn't know it, no he doesn't know it)
