Lyrics[]

[On the Satellite of Love]
Mike Nelson: Welcome, my friends. We are very fortunate to have with us today the United Servo Academy Men's Chorus, directed by United Servo Academy Men's Choral Director Vice Brigadier Sir Thomas "Bullhead" Servo conducting them in "The United Servo Academy Men's Chorus Hymn"
Tom Servo: All right. Eyes front. Three...and..."

SERVOS
Here's to the guys and gals who like to fly
Flying so high with some guy in the sky
Sky rockets in flight, afternoon delight
Captain High at your service

TOM
Would you like to fly in my beautiful balloon?
Take these broken wings and learn to* fly me to the moon
Sail on silver bird
Have you ever heard that the bird is the word?

SERVOS
In a big country, dreams stay with you
Come along with me Lucille in my merry Oldsmobile
We are kids for saving Earth
We are fans of Colin Firth
Off we go to yonder blue
We really move our tails for you

TOM
Cross the wide Missouri

Mike Nelson: Ah, fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. That was the United Servo Academy Men's Chorus and that sonorous tone that you heard, of course, has to be due in large part to the fantastic... [the Chorus begins to sing "Hinky Dinky Parlez-Vous"] What are you doing? What are you doing? Please stop that music. Please. Please do not...do not continue with this Vice Brigadier Sir Thomas "Bullhead", I implore you. Stop the music! Stop, I say! Stop the music. Sylvester, can we get an engineer in here, please? In Studio A. I apologize ladies and gentlemen. I want you out of my studio. Stop this music right now! Out! Out! Raus! Rrrrr-aus!

Notes[]

  • The phrase "Take these broken wings and learn to fly" appears in both the Beatles' song "Blackbird" (written by Paul McCartney [as Lennon/McCartney]) and the Mister Mister song "Broken Wings" (written by Richard Page, Steve George, and John Lang). The Beatles are the more famous band, but their song only reached #20 on the Billboard chart whereas the Mister Mister song was a #1 hit. It is unclear which of these was the inspiration for the lyric here.
  • "Vice Brigadier" does not seem to be an actual rank in either the American or British (as would seem to be implied by the additional title of "Sir") armies. The British Royal Air Force (RAF) has a rank of Air Vice-Marshal, which would be the equivalent of a Major General (2-stars) in the army. The U.S. Air Force uses the rank of General for flag officers, as does the U.S. Army. The American and British Navies both have a rank of Vice Admiral, equivalent in rank to a Lieutenant General (3-stars). A Brigadier General is a 1-star rank in both countries' militaries.
