Roll up for tours, the Milky Way!
They’ll just provide the map
And watch you from afar to check
you crossed with no mishap

The Milky Way, let’s go, yippee!
We’ll jump from star to star
Oops, they seem rather far apart
Looks like we won’t get far

We’ll take some goats and cows and yaks
They’ll help us find the Way
And give us endless pints of Milk
But what about their hay?

The Milky Way’s a galaxy
a spiral, nothing more
Hope that we won’t get sucked into
the black hole at the core

They say a girl can kiss a boy
when crossing from each end
So let’s do that and when we meet
you’ll be my lady friend
