Lyrics Dan Dare (Pilot Of The Future) - Elton John

Dan Dare (Pilot Of The Future)

Can you tell me how old Dan might’ve done it
If he’d been here now, holy cow
My stars might’ve been read on the planet Mars
'Cause I don’t have foresight to see
If we’ll still be together in the twenty-first
In the twenty-first century, oh no
He’s our flyin' ace, Pilot of the Future
In an endless space, holy cow
My eyes never saw a rocket that was quite that size
'Cause I don’t have the energy
To be cat and mouse for the champions
For the champions of destiny, oh no
So long, Captain Dan
I fail to see what motivates your hands
Goodbye, restless night
You know I love Dan Dare, but I couldn’t make his flight
So long, so long, yeah
Dan Dare doesn’t know it
He doesn’t know it, he doesn’t know it
But I like the Mekon
Oh, so long, Captain Dan
I fail to see what motivates your hands
Goodbye, restless night
You know I love 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
Dan Dare doesn’t know it
He doesn’t know it, he doesn’t know it
But I like the Mekon
Dan Dare doesn’t know it
Doesn’t know it, doesn’t know it
But I like the Mekon
Dan Dare doesn’t know it, know it
Doesn’t know it, know it, doesn’t know it, know it, doesn’t know it
But I like the Mekon
(Dan Dare doesn’t know it, know it, doesn’t know it, know it)
(Doesn't know it, know it, doesn’t know it)
(Dan Dare doesn’t know it, know it, doesn’t know it, know it)
(Doesn't know it, know it, doesn’t know it)
