I'm the Payload

It was back in the days in the outer rims, one night I was high on life and drunk as fuck, it was quite all right What a perfect evening for a grand theft spacecraft Up up and away, keep the cops at bay, yo ho Yo-ho! There's always someone that will hunt me out of greed As the saying goes Yeah! Bad news travel in hyper speed She's on a killing spree and there she flies With artificial red hair and augmented eyes I'm up for grabs, she's in for a fight She wants me dead or in carbonite She does whatever it takes to receive her payment She's a ruthless bail enforcement agent I'm astray and misled, there's a bounty on my head I'm the payload The first time that I met her, well what could I do? I was lying in a puddle of alien goo There was heat in the air and I think she felt it too A cybernetic goddess in sparkling armour Said "I want you" I was tipsy but fine Just a little groggy I went out of line And I offered my body She cocked her gun With a face filled with dread And said she only wanted my head That's when my heart did melt in the asteroid belt It was the weirdest feeling that I've ever felt These bounty hunters, it's hard to resist them As I'm wanted in twentythree different systems I'm a reckless rogue Feel my laser vogue I barely got away and now I am her prey And the payload Dashing through the meteor showers Accelerating on maximum power Just give up, throw your hands up and hang on I've got plenty of bombs and fiftyseven cannons Pow! I'm faster than light Lock on target, in my line of sight In space noone can hear you scream I've got you in my tractor beam Full speed energy shuttle thruster You're the payload, I'm your buster 1 2 3 I'll shoot you down Shoot you down Get this I'LL SHOOT YOU DOWN Down down down I'LL SHOOT YOU DOWN I'm hit and I am running out of fuel Abandon ship Now, how could she be so cruel? Diving headfirst straight into a black hole is suicide So I fire up my jetpack with a flick of the switch and go (baby go baby baby go go) I'm a rocket man, I'm flying free Make way for my trajectory She's a missile queen, she's in pursuit And en route And I'm trying hard But I can't believe my luck as I ride shotgun in her starship, motherfuckers I'm in love at gunpoint on the milky road I'm the payload I was caught in a crash, she only wants me for cash And if she turns her back I will be gone in a flash Our love affair is strictly monetary She's my intergalactic adversary
