So Say We All in Slow-Mo

Intro

Mm... mm-hmm... pass the charts...

Verse 1

Printed first in '78, magazine size

Marvel Super Special #8 hit before your eyes

Then 23 issues monthly from '79 to '81

McKenzie writin', Simonson drawin', till the story was done

It went cold then Maximum lit up in July '95

Rob Liefeld and Richard Hatch bringin' the fleet alive

War of Eden trade paper in December, four books strong

Realm tried in '98 with Search for Sanctuary then it was gone

Pre-Chorus

Since 2006 Dynamite holds the charter

Classic and reimagined on the same altar

Chorus

Ohhhhh driftin' through the red eye of a Cylon

Adama dreamin' in the Memory Machine

Starbuck lost with the pirate queen

Jolly got the map to Earth in his hazy dream

Light it up

Viper rollin' slow

Twelve colonies gone in a purple glow

Verse 2

Commander Adama laid out from six to twelve

Dreamin' bout Kobol scriptures in a cosmic haze

His boy Apollo took the chair in later years

Leadin' us toward Earth through Maximum's fears

Pre-Chorus

Starbuck the space cowboy cigar still lit

Sold himself to save the fleet and let it slip

Chorus

Ohhhhh driftin' through the red eye of a Cylon

Adama dreamin' in the Memory Machine

Starbuck lost with the pirate queen

Jolly got the map to Earth in his hazy dream

Light it up

Viper rollin' slow

Twelve colonies gone in a purple glow

Drop

Pass the Tylium

Pass the Tylium

Verse 3

War of Eden and Baltar's fleet attacks

Sheba shoots Apollo in the back

Seraphs bring the Pegasus across

Adama finally dies in that cosmic loss

Abnett came with Death of Apollo

Ten years out they thought the war was through

Cylon Apocalypse and Ghost Squadron black

Galactica vs Galactica in one timeline crack

Bridge

Yeah... Marvel made their own Kobol after Lost Planet of the Gods

Realm did Season 2 and 3, three issues and static

Dynamite gave us both continuities

Old-school chrome and skin-job Cylons on the same hash pipe

Final Chorus

So pass me the charts to Earth man I can't read the stars

We're lost on the flip side of Kobol with two Vipers and three bars

Adama's dreamin', Apollo's dyin', Starbuck's always leavin'

But the comics keep the fleet alive every time we stop believin'

Light it up

Viper rollin' slow

Twelve colonies gone in a purple glow

Light it up

Let the Tylium burn low

So say we all

In slow-mo
