My mama told me I should never venture into space But I did, I did, I did. She said no Terran girl could trust the Martian race But I did, I did, I did. A rocket pilot asked me on a voyage to go And I was so romantic I couldn't say no— That he was just a servo robot how was I to know?— So I did, I did, I did.
She told me never venture out among the asteroids But I did, I did, I did. She said the Milky Way was something to avoid So I did, I did, I did. She said that Venus was too hot and Saturn not much fun And bug-eyed monsters tended to be just a trifle dumb. She said I'd need a blaster and I'd need a freezer gun And I did, I did, I did.
My mama told me never trust a space engineer But I did, I did, I did. She said freefall and superdrive would surely cost me dear And they did, they did, they did. I've been as far in hyperspace as anybody can, I've travelled through the time warp in the Psycho Plan. They say a gal must travel for to find her superman And I did, I did, I did.
