Comments: | Jaymz Bee has recorded "lounge lizard"
versions of two of my songs: "Run To You" and "Spaceship
Superstar".
The arrangements are silly, but very clever and innovative. Of all the recordings of my songs, these rank among my favourites. |

Lyrics: | Every
night it's a different flight To a different galaxy Do a sold-out show then I hit the road In my starship limousine I get so damn tired and uninspired Doin' all these one night stands It's a giant leap for rock and roll But it's too much for just one man I'm a spaceship superstar I've got a solar-powered laser beam guitar (He's a spaceship superstar) I'm at the top of all the charts on Mars (He's got a solar-powered laser beam guitar) I'm a spaceship superstar On Mercury they're crazy 'bout My stellar rock and roll And I always sell out in advance At the Martian Astrobowl The fans they swarm like meteorites To our concerts on the moon You hould have seen us knock 'em dead on Venus Doin' all our favourite tunes I'm a spaceship superstar I've got a solar-powered laser beam guitar (He's a spaceship superstar) I'm at the top of all the charts on Mars (He's got a solar-powered laser beam guitar) I'm a spaceship superstar |
