Play Prepare for blast off
One of my all time favorite movies! Any of us that played these stand up arcade machines would have gladly traded places with Alex as he defends the frontier. The Last Starfighter was a spectacular movie with great music, and cutting special effects for the time. I wrote this original song just for the Treks IN Sci Fi podcast with Rico Dostie. I hope you enjoy this blast from the past! Good job Starfighter!
Prepare for Blast Off
Music and lyrics by Rick Moyer
In a dusty trailer park I’m waiting
For my destiny to be served
Put another quarter in the stand up arcade machine
I’ll defend the Universe in the Rylan Star League
Galactic Greetings young star fighter
You’ve been Recruited by the Star League
To defend the frontier
Fighting against Xur and Ko Dan Armada
Get ready prepare for Blast Off!
And so I’m recruited by Centauri
A real old guy with a fancy car
In my gunstar with Grig the Iguana
It’s up to us and all we are
Galactic Greetings young star fighter
You’ve been Recruited by the Star League
To defend the frontier
Fighting against Xur and Ko Dan Armada
Get ready prepare for Blast Off!
