Rocket to Mongo

Verse 1

Yale polo boy with a golden grin

Dale beside him in the falling wind

Meteor screamed across the dying night

Zarkov grabbed the wheel and said we're taking flight

(We're taking flight)

We're taking flight

Pre-Chorus

Crash-landed where the sky burns red

Two worlds hanging by a thread

Chorus

Flash Gordon rocket to Mongo

Dale Arden never letting go

Zarkov built a ship from sparks and dreams

Now we're dancing on a planet at the seams

Oh Mongo

Mongo

Verse 2

Met the devils and the angels on that world

Ming the Merciless with iron fist unfurled

His daughter Aura fired glances meant for me

And Barin ruled the forests like a king should be

Vultan and the Hawkmen diving from the clouds

Thun and the Lion Men roaring fierce and proud

Sky kingdom and forest kingdom side by side

All of them waiting for a boy from Yale to ride

Pre-Chorus

Forest king and bird and beast

Ming is coming to the feast

Chorus

Flash Gordon rocket to Mongo

Dale Arden never letting go

Zarkov shouting we can save the Earth yet

If we can break Ming's throne before the sunset

Oh Mongo

Mongo

Bridge

Talkin' 'bout the tournament of steel and fire

Ray-guns glowing like a choir

Aura scheming in her gown of gold

Dale caught between a love and a dagger's cold

Flash don't play polo on this broken ground

He's a rebel king on a planet spinning 'round

Final Chorus

Flash Gordon

(Savior in the pulp and ink)

Dale Arden

(The heart that made him think)

Zarkov Aura Barin Vultan Thun

On Mongo we are one

Outro

Flash Gordon

On the planet Mongo
