A Light Did Flash Across The Sky
A Light So Bright I Feared I’d Die
I Tell The Truth, I Do Not Lie
The Doom Of All Was Close, Near By
A Space Ship Land Right By My Place
They Would Enslave The Human Race
Green Men Poured Out With Quickened Pace
To Make My House The Invasion Base
Take Me To Your Leader Now
I’ve Come To Take Away His Crown
His Weaknesses Will Bring Him Down
On His Knees And On The Ground
I Could Not Let Them Rule The Earth
To Bring Harm The Land Of My Birth
Defend The Land For What It’s Worth
A Plan I Had So I’d Act First
My Fearless Leader Is A Mouse
In Image Of Him In My House
Your Presence There I Must Announce
You’ll See Both Him And His Spouse
Through Space They Came A Billion Miles
They Had To Face A Million Trials
I Know It Had To Take A While
So They Could Wait The Drive With Smiles
The Entrance It Said Disneyland
The Castle Stood And It Was Grand
Take Me To Your Leader, Man
Now Was The Time To Take My Stand
He Is Not There, Look At That Poster
He’s On-Board A Roller-Coaster
I’ll Take You There, We Will Get Closer
I’ll Get There Fast, I Will Not Boosters
The Coaster Started Fast Not Slow
His Color Changed, His Skin Did Glow
The Look Of Fear I Do Well Know
I Laughed With Joy And Watched The Show
The Ride Did Flips And It Did Spins
Turned Sharp Corners And Did Bends
Loop-De-Loops When It Begin
And When It Stopped, Started Again
The Ride It Stopped And They Looked Pale
Yet, Kids Rejoiced With Smile They’d Yell
My Guest Bewildered I Could Tell
Just One More Ride And They Would Bail
He’s Right In Here, I’m Not In Error
Here In This Tower, The One Called Terror
He’s There Now Maybe Not Later
Let’s Go In Fast, I’m Not A Traitor
Not To Give A Lot Of Facts
This Was The Time I Had To Act
Fear Had Ceased My Guest, In Fact
I’d Swear They Had A Heart Attack
Children Laughed And Wanted More
My Guest The Crawled Down On The Floor
They Got Up, Ran Right Out The Door
Then I Saw Them Never More
I Don’t Know Where From Which They Came
Never Even Heard Their Name
Don’t Know What Really Was Their Aim
I Had Fun, Them, Not The Same
