Dan Dare

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 Mekon
