They Might Be Giants

The Ballad of Davy Crockett (in Outer Space)

Davy, Davy Crockett

Traveling through outer space

Reborn in the stratosphere and Saturn-bound

Flying fast and miles off the ground

Jumped from the spaceship just to look around

And shot off his gun without making a sound

Davy, Davy Crockett

King of this brand new place

Davy, Davy Crockett

Traveling through outer space

Off went his rocket at the speed of light

Flying so fast there was no day or night

Messing around with the fabric of time

He knows who's guilty 'fore there's even a crime

Davy, Davy Crockett

The buckskin astronaut

Davy, Davy Crockett

There's more than we were taught

Hiding in the cargo was a robot drone

Programmed to destroy Davy's spaceship home

Davy switched out his brains, now the drone's a dog clone

Named him Copernicus and threw him a bone

Davy, Davy Crockett

King of this brand new place

Davy, Davy Crockett

Traveling through outer space

Davy, Davy Crockett

King of this brand new place

Davy, Davy Crockett

Traveling through outer space
