to the places I won't go
Where we once were cosmic riders
now all cobwebs; dark and low
I still remember space guns blazing
rocking horse bob to and fro
Jumping over crazy paving
Thunderbirds WOW go man go
Sat on the couch with fingers twitching
Troy Tempest playing on TV
I fell in love with sweet Marina
Stingray was the place to be
Stars twinkled in the darkest yonder
back in nineteen sixty-five
Steve Zodiac he made us wonder
as he piloted Fireball XL5
The dusty desert swept side to side
the Lone Ranger..yeah of course
And who'd be first to get a ride
on Champion the Wonder Horse
Behind the couch in shaking fear
not knowing what to do
As Daleks stalked the Universe
being chased by Dr Who
Across the cosmos speeding on
the Enterprise and crew
Jean Luc Picard or Captain Kirk
the choice is up to you
The re-runs are now playing
they all seem weak and mild
because they're missing one thing
The wonder of a child
