Verse 1
He was a Yale polo boy blonde and bold and brave
Dale beside him in a falling plane
Meteor in the sky
Earth in deadly strife
Mad Zarkov said we're taking that rocket ride
Crash-landed on Mongo where the sky burns red
Chorus
Flash Gordon riding to Mongo
Dale Arden holding tight
Zarkov built a ship from sparks and fever dreams
Now we're dancing on a planet at the seams
Oh Mongo oh Mongo
Verse 2
Well I met the devils and the angels on that world
Ming the Merciless with fists of iron hurled
His daughter Aura burning for the stranger's soul
And Barin waiting in the forest to take back his control
Vultan diving down from Hawkmen clouds
Thun roaring with the lion crowd
Forest kingdom sky kingdom beast and bird
All waiting for a Yale boy's word
Pre-Chorus
Can you hear the war drums calling
Every empire falling
Chorus
Flash Gordon riding to Mongo
Dale Arden never letting go
Zarkov screaming we can save the Earth yet
If we can break the tyrant's throne
Oh Mongo oh Mongo
Bridge
Talkin' bout the Tournament
Sword fights and ray guns glow
Aura scheming in a gown of gold
Dale caught between a lover and a dagger's gleam
The polo star don't play no more
He's a king in a rebel dream
Oh Mongo keeps turning Earth in danger still
But a Yale boy learned a tyrant's will
Final Chorus
Flash Gordon savior of the stars in pulp and ink
Dale Arden the heart that made the hero think
Zarkov and Aura Barin Vultan and Thun
On Mongo we are one
Outro
Flash Gordon
Planet Mongo
To be continued
