We lit a jar spectacular

And gazed at the light for hours

We climbed a stairway through the air

'Till we reached the highest tower

And we never saw our friends again

No we never saw our friends again

And we never saw our friends again

No we never saw our friends again

Strange ships sailing in the moonlight

Round trips from dawn to midnight

Look at those strange ships

Flickering like satellites

Coming to sail us away

Oh sail us away

We saw a bus in phosphorus

Doing 200 miles an hour

The rainbow wheels were passin' us

Leaving an array of flowers

And we'll never see the same again

We'll never see the same again

We'll never see the same again

And we'll never be the same again

Strange ships sailing in the moonlight

Round trips from dawn to midnight

Look at those strange ships

Flickering like satellites

Coming to sail us away

Oh sail us away

And we'll never see the same again

We'll never see the same again

We'll never see the same again

And we'll never be the same again

Strange ships sailing in the moonlight

Round trips from dawn to midnight

Look at those strange ships

Flickering like satellites

Coming to sail us away

Oh sail us away

Strange ships sailing in the moonlight

Round trips from dawn to midnight

Look at those strange ships

Flickering like satellites

Coming to sail us away

Oh sail us away
