The captain of the star cruiser was feeling rather
strange,
Something on the radar scope had just come into range;
He put the crew on red alert and called for stellar drive,
The scanner showed that something in the thing was still alive.
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...Got to get home
I don't want to live out here in space all alone,
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...Answer my call
Can anybody hear me? Anyone at all?
"Communications Centre, can you give me a fix?
We don't want to fall for one of planet Zoron's tricks;
Weapons Systems - Red Alert - Ready with the blaster,
This will show those aliens that Earth is still the master."
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...Engines are dead,
Oxygen systems are all in the red;
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...I'm here in the sky,
Don't leave me here, floating in this capsule, to die.
The captain asked the main computer what it was worth,
The chances of this ancient capsule getting here from Earth;
The odds were astronomical, the facts he had to face,
He had to blow the interloper out of outer space.
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...Somebody please,
Fuel cells are gone and I'm starting to freeze;
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...I'm out here in space,
Somebody help me get out of this place.
"Weapons Systems - Fire One - Blast it from the skies,
They won't return our signals and it must be Zoron spies;"
And as the capsule showered space with silver nuclear fission
Communications zeroed on a fading, weak transmission.
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...Come in, anyone,
Am I close to the Moon? Am I close to the Sun?
Moon Shot...Moon Shot...My radio's dead,
You can't hear my signals cause they're all in my head.
