[Intro: excerpt of NASA transmission:]
5, 4, 3, 2
Main engine start, 0, and liftoff of the Delta rocket with Opportunity
A chance to explore, and unlock the secrets of of our neighboring planet
[Verse 1]
There's a speck beyond the heavens
There's a dot among the stars
That men for generations said
To be the face of Mars
I've often thought his thirst for war
Might one day find an end
That he might calm down a little
If he only found a friend
Well it's far too far to visit
We've barely reached the moon
But we thought we'd send a messenger
To say we'd be there soon
So our finest, best and brightest
Set their minds to a machine
To venture in our stead through space
To keep him company
[Chorus]
So carry on little rover
Opportunity awaits
Though your song may be over
May your music never fade
That you’ve written in the sands
Of lands afar we’ve yet to face
Little rover
We hope you found your home
