THE ACROBOT HOP
(Moimir Papalescu / Peter Van Krbetz / Leon Stevenson)

Ladies & Gentlemen
Boys and girls and mutants too
Under the big top
The Mart ian circus is waiting for you
So daring we flew
through the air with the greatest of ease
Amazing precision
Shiny bots on the flying trapeze
If you’ve got the ticket, if you love the show
If you wanna hop to it, come on let’s go
High-wire-tension - reaction
Way above the circus ring
A u - tomatic - reaction
Under a spell when we do our thing
Sparks a flying - reaction
This body’s seen the good old days
St ardust a fading - reaction
The golden apex so far and away
If you’re going under, if you love my soul
If you wanna hop to it, do you wanna let me know
The acrobots are coming your way hop hop -
hop hop
Everybodys’ crazy it’s a brand new day hop hop
- hop hop
My sugar shack is surely open to the past hop
hop - hop hop
We’re made of love and steel and so we’re built to
last hop hop - hop hop
If you wanna hop
Don’t ever make it stop
You’re like a spinning top
The cream of the crop
A flying tin can
A flaming straw man
With a time sharing plan
For a fabulous tan
If you wanna hop
Don’t ever make it stop
You’re like a spinning top
The cream of the crop
A flying tin can
A flaming straw man
With a time sharing plan
For a fabulous tan
If you’ve got the ticket, if you love the show
If you wanna hop to it, do you wanna let me know
If you’re going under, if you love my soul
If you wanna hop to it, do you wanna let me know
