Flash! Gordon! (Planet at the Seams)

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 boys and girl we're taking that rocket ride

Crash-landed on Mongo

Where the sky burns red

Chorus

Flash! Gordon! Rocket to Mongo!

Dale! Arden! Got your hand to hold!

Zarkov built a ship from sparks and dreams

Now we're dancing on a planet at the seams

Ohhh Mongo! Mongo!

Verse 2

Well I met the devils and the angels on that world

Ming the Merciless with an iron fist to hurl

His daughter Aura eyes of fire for Flash alone

And Barin rightful king in Arboria's forest home

Vultan! Hawkmen diving from the clouds

Thun! Lion Men roaring proud and loud

Forest kingdom sky kingdom beast and bird

All waiting for a Yale boy's word

Pre-Chorus

Turmoil and thunder

On this world so strange

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

Bridge

Tournament of Ming

Sword fights and ray-guns glow

Princess Aura scheming in a gown of gold

Dale caught between love and a dagger's gleam

Flash don't play polo no more

He's a king in a rebel dream

Oh Mongo keeps turning

Earth in danger still

A polo star learned how to kill

A tyrant with a will

Final Chorus

Flash! Gordon! Savior of the universe in pulp and ink!

Dale! Arden! The heart that made the hero think!

Zarkov! Aura! Barin! Vultan! Thun!

On Mongo we are one!
