Nuclear Drive

Before I had time to think about it
And right before my eyes
The machine had landed and the doors were open wide
I stepped inside the spaceship, a voice said
"Take a seat man, do you want to cruise the Universe
to where no one else has ever been?"
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
Bur before I could answer
The ship began to rise
I looked out of the porthole
And felt most peculiar inside
Take me up the skyways
Show me what you've seen
I want to cruise the universe in your superspace machine
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
