3. Amazing Flight (10:15)
There is danger ahead. But do not be afraid. For I am with you- like breath
itself. Darkness will lead to light- color will bleed into the night.
Beautiful colors, the likes of which you have never seen. Let the dream of
confusion lead you into the virgin light! Be gone! Be all- seeing, be
brave....Be gone!
Amazing Flight in Space
BARBARIAN:
I'm looking 'round bewildered
Is this some dark and evil jest?
what brought me to this cursed keep
perchance some crazy quest
gods forbid I am no coward!
pitted against a monster, man, or ghost,
I'd wield my blade with crimson gusto
for I am the proud barbarian host!
HIPPIE:
Hey dude, you're so uncool
but hey, that's alright
like there's no need to get uptight
my eyes reflect the stars
and smile lights up my face
we're on an amazing flight in space
BARBARIAN:
I shook city walls and towers
wreaking havoc in the streets
burned palaces of cow'rdly kings
not a one stood up to me (fools) here
Bear bloody banners in blazing skies
brandish battle-axe and broadsword
let drums of glory sound like thunder!
Hail!! barbaric warlord!!
Stardance
