Mission Report 80-096-02 Lyrics


Report regarding the stowaway

Answering to the name of J.

At first, he seemed well-adjusted

Sincere and could be trusted

Then came the asteroid collision

Basically, no risk to our mission

But he seemed anxious and convinced that

We were under an alien attack

Another mission report

Another number in a row

Catalogued in an orderly array

Another mission report

That no one will remember

Gone the day - they filed it away

Another mission

A Mission Report

Another mission

A Mission Report

Imaginary people he would see

Creating a Mars-bound colony

He shunned away and kept to himself

We worried and feared for his health

One morning when left his bed

He looked around and raised his head

Gazing at us with contempt

Saying something quite arrogant

He walked straight to the air lock bay

Flicked the switch of the outer gate

Then ejected himself into space

Drifting away ‘til we could see no trace

Not being crucial to the crew

There was nothing that we could do

The mission will carry on as planned

Our next report will be when we land

Another mission report

Another number in a row

Catalogued in an orderly array

Another mission report

That no one will remember

Gone the day - they filed it away

Another mission

A Mission Report

Another mission

A Mission Report
