Come aboard my ship
I've something to show you
Some new equipment
To take us where we're going
A subspace machine
A hole in the fabric
Of the very being of the universe

Ignition, atomic power on
We must break our orbit
And soar right past the planets
It took man a million years
To make it only this far
And we'll leave the solar system
Very soon

Around the universe in eighty days
Sit down I think you'll like it
Out in space
There's nothing left to stop us now
We're sure to win the race

In our warp
When time and space are one
We can no longer see the sun
In fact there's nothing there for us to see
For light is nowhere near as fast as we

Our computer says
We've exceeded expectations
When we reach our departure point
There will be celebrations
What this means is our existance
No longer has a limit
The universe will be our new home

Now the Earth is just beginning
To learn of our existance
All life in space must
Learn to live as one
Maybe now is the time
For friendship with our neighbors
For our planet is
The second from the sun

Around the universe in eighty days
Sit down I think you'll like it
Out in space
There's nothing left to stop us now
We're sure to win the race
Sure to win the race
