Space Race Sugarhill Gang

[Intro]
"Good morning, this is mission control
We've got a beautiful day, and you've been cleared for lift-off."

You don't need no juice or rocket fuel
You don't need to waste time in flight school
You gotta burn bright like a meteorite
Start spinning around like a satellite

So let's you and me defy gravity
Come on everybody, everybody come on
And get up!

[vocoder]
Space race
Space race
Space race
Space race

Life in the slow lane gettin' to be a drag
Gasping for a breath of air, gotta pack a bag, uh-huh
The shuttle's fast, if you like to get around
My mind's on the Moon, my behind is on the ground
Come on!

So you wanna be an astronaut? ("You've been cleared for lift off.")
Fire it up, give it all you got ("In T minus 60 seconds")
So you wanna be an astronaut?
Fire it up, give it all you got
