Oooo-eee-ooo-eee-ooo!
Verse 1
Well back in 1928 in pulp magazine
A writer cooked up a future scene
Anthony Rogers in a cave gone wrong
A gas cloud put him under way too long
Four ninety-two years in a radioactive tomb
Woke up in a city with a different room
January 7th, twenty-four nineteen
First comic spaceman caught the silver screen
Armageddon twenty-four nineteen and Airlords of Han
America in ruins under a foreign hand
Chorus
Buck Buck Rogers in the twenty-fifth century
Jump-belt flying with a ray-gun on his knee
Buck Buck Rogers coming through the years
Wilma by his side and the future shows no fears (bop-shoo-bop)
Verse 2
Wilma Deering there from page one
Lieutenant star-pilot carrying a Tommy gun
Rocket boots and rouge a heart of steel
She'll shoot down a raider then spin the wheel
Dr. Huer the genius with the silver crown
Builds disintegrators that bring empires down
Black Barney the pirate from the red planet Mars
Used to steal your cargo now he guards the stars
Pre-Chorus
Killer Kane with his mustache thin
Lost his queen and lost his win
He went dark and went to crime
Took a Draconian queen on the line
Chorus
Buck Buck Rogers in the twenty-fifth century
Jump-belt flying with a ray-gun on his knee
Buck Buck Rogers coming through the years
Wilma by his side and the future shows no fears (bop-shoo-bop)
Bridge
Rocket packs and jump belts
Inertia-less and ray-gun welts
From the Under-City to the asteroid sea
Twentieth century grit to the twenty-fifth century free
Big Chorus
Buck Buck Rogers twenty-five hundred A D
Spinning like a record for all the world to see
Buck Buck Rogers five hundred years late
Hero's never early and a hero's never late (bop-shoo-wop)
Outro
If you get trapped in a cave
Hold your breath and count to twenty-four nineteen
Buck saved the future daddy-o
Still saving it on every late show
Ba-da-da Buck
