LYRIC FOR SALE

By Bernard Morris

(verse 1)
In our red and blue and yellow spaceship we go flying
Floating high in outer space grav-ity we’re denying
On a trip in outer space in our great big spaceship
Through a great big crystal straw lemon-ade we both sip
The first planet that we visit is the planet Mars
Where green martians drive around in plastic motor cars
In the Mars sky there are two moons shining oh so bright
Moonbeams kissing the night planet with lunar delight

(chorus)
Across the universe we fly in our big spaceship
Flying high in outer space on a cosmic space trip

(verse 2)
We leave the planet Mars and off we fly to Jupiter
To the planet our spaceship it is a newcomer
And whilst on Earth we only have the one moon shining down
Jupiter has eighty shining moonbeams all around
Jupiter is a gas giant with a swirl of storms
Where green and white bees with twenty wings fly in cosmic swarms
If they sting you on your head it will swell up in size
And purple and yellow tears will stream from both your eyes

(chorus)
Across the universe we fly in our big spaceship
Flying high in outer space on a cosmic space trip

(instrumental bridge)

(verse 3)
From Jupiter next we fly to the ringed planet Saturn
Where an orange alien lives in a great big cavern
Stars in outer space they shine their light on Saturn’s rings
Where a unicorn plays the harmonica and sings
Uranus is the next planet that we fly off to
It is full of cold ice and it is a greeny blue
It is full of ice monsters that nobody can melt
Their bodies are the coldest that anyone has felt

(chorus)
Across the universe we fly in our big spaceship
Flying high in outer space on a cosmic space trip

(verse 4)
We fly next to Neptune which is like a giant ice ball
We get out of our spaceship and have a game of football
But we have to abandon the game for it’s too cold
And frozen goalkeeper hands the ball they cannot hold
In our red and blue and yellow spaceship we all go
Flying back to our home planet and now we all know
That the universe is full of galactic delight
To the universe we all say thank you and goodnight

(chorus)
Across the universe we fly in our big spaceship
Flying high in outer space on a cosmic space trip
Across the universe we fly in our big spaceship
Flying high in outer space on a cosmic space trip
