Song Lyrics

In the midday heat I gave a sigh
Cruisin' through the garden district I was out of mind
The star of India's in my hotel room
In a brief combination 3,2,1, (which only I know)
And I've just seen by mentor Dr No
California sun is on the radio let's go

I just want to reach the radio star
I just want to reach the radio star
It's a satellite of Venus and it ain't to far
I just want to reach the radio star

I was shooting up in my hotel room
When my phone started ringing oh no
It was Dr No he gave me the password
He said hey man haven't you heard (I said no)
The worlds been invaded by alien life forms
Meet me at the airport, we've got to get out, let's go

I just want to reach the radio star
I just want to reach the radio star
It's a satellite of Venus and it ain't to far
I just want to reach the radio star

I ran to the window and looked out
There were dead people all over the street man
Within two minutes I had all my stuff together
I jumped in the car and was speeding down the highway past all the deserted cars
In five minutes I was at the airport but there at the gates I saw what I suppose was one of them Alien life forms
I pulled my bazooka out of it's bag in the back of the car and blew it to hell
As arrange Dr No was waiting for me in the terminal
We got a private jet plane and took off
Two hours later landing in Zaire
Where we met up with Fu Manchu, Hannibal Lector, the hooded claw and all the rest of the gang
We boarded the rocket and soon we were shooting off for the stars
And as we approached the space station I looked down and observed the earth
The US airforce being annihilated
And swarms of Nu-clear weapons soaring through the stratosphere destroying the earth
And I swear to god I laughed
