Obs Deck

(tune: "Love Shack" by the B-52s)

There's a room with windows on the top of the ship and it's
On the blueprints as the Obs Deck! Obs Deck yeah!
I'm lookin' past Trance's greenery, lookin' at the space scenery
Looking at the space scenery, space scenery,
I see a star, it's big and it's bright, and we're lookin' at it
From the Obs Deck
It's got some planets, I see about seven
We've got a fantastic view of the heavens

The Obs Deck is a little old place where we can view the cosmos
Obs Deck baby, Obs Deck baby.
Obs Deck, that's where it's at, Obs Deck baby, that's where it's at.

Niet says, Woo, stay away kludge, 'cause Elssbett's in the Obs Deck!
Well she took the room that everyone should use
My favourite deck, and I gotta get back!

Glitter from a galaxy
Glitter from a pulsar
Glitter from a planet
Glitter from a star

The Obs Deck is a little old place where we can view the cosmos
Obs Deck baby! Obs Deck, that's where it's at!
Dodgin and a weavin', duckin' and a runnin', shootin' all our missles
'Cause there're Nietzscheans attackin'!
The whole deck shimmies! The whole deck shimmies when the missiles
Are goin' kaboom and kaboom and kaboom!
Point defense firin', everyone's perspirin'!
Niets linin' up outside to get shot down
Guns all are firin', everyone's perspirin' baby
Observation Deck! Observation Deck!

Hop in my starship, it's big and it gleams and it's about to slipstream!
I got a nova bomb, it can hold about 20
But I wouldn't sell them, no matter the money
.
Talk, talk, talk on the deck baby! Chat a little longer baby!
Talk, talk, talk on the deck baby! I can hear you
What's that? Episode's over!
Obs Deck, baby Obs Deck!
Obs Deck, that's where it's at
Talkin' and a-thinkin', cryin' and tail-huggin' on the Obs Deck!
