Day Trip

They came in by hyper drive Just a quick trip from the stars, Parked their ship in orbit Just slightly north of Mars, Switched on the intruder shield Around the hatched front door Then set off for Blackpool Kiss me quick hats to the fore, Took a trip around the lights Complete with stick of rock Supped six pints of bitter And by eight o’clock, Having done the tower Toured the sights Decided to call it A very decent night. Vacation over, Splendid day Time to be back On their way. Transporter drive Took them back to Mars Then the hyper drive Took them to the stars. Meanwhile Back on a rainy Blackpool street Waited the four birds They’d promised faithfully to meet.
