TV series closing title song lyrics... |
| |
| "Dan
Dare, Pilot of the Future" |
| Music
by Elton John, Lyrics by Bernie Taupin |
| (Available
on the album "Rock of the Westies") |
| |
| 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 like the Mekon |
