How To Build a Spaceship

To Build a spaceship you need:


Saucepans. For intergalactic transmissions to other planets like mars,

Planets to orbit. If not what else would a spaceship do?

Aliens. Every Spaceship needs aliens!

Captain. Before you even start to make a spaceship you need a captain,

Egg cups. To act as buttons as they are too expensive.

Sky’s the limit! In this case its actually not in a spaceship, but what I mean is let you imagine 
run free, nothings too difficult when building a space ship,

High-fives, are always necessary when something goes right

Intergalactic. Be sure to write intergalactic on various buttons and levers to make your          
spaceship look more hi-tech,

Pie. When the spaceship is finally finished, tuck into some pie!
