Lyrics:

[Speaker 1:]

Arcaida

X-ray X-ray delta niner niner zero

This is Starfleet Control

You are clear to go hyper space

Acknowledge

[Speaker 2:]

Affirmative, Star Comm

We have situation gold

[Speaker 1:]

Niner niner zero, roger

You're looking good for trans-light

[Sarah singing:]

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

Oh…

Hey, Captain Strange, won't you be my lover

You're the best thing that I've ever discovered

Flash Gordon's left me, he's gone to the stars

An evil Darth Vader has me banished to Mars

Tell me, Captain Strange, do you feel my devotion

Or are you like a droid, devoid of emotion

Encounters one and two are not enough for me

What my body needs is close encounter three

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

Flashing lights in hyper space

Fighting for the Federation

Hand in hand we'll conquer space

Listen, Captain Strange, what's our destination

The scanners seem to indicate a small deviation

Static on the comm - it's Starfleet Command

Requesting your position, it's their final demand

Your intentions are known, they've found out at last

So if you're gonna take me, please make it fast

Touch me, feel me, do what you will

I want to feel that galatic thrill

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

Flashing lights in hyper space

Fighting for the Federation

Hand in hand we'll conquer space

[Speaker 1:]

Niner niner zero

This is Star Comm

We got a problem

On your vector

Request status check

Over

[Sarah singing:]

Oh, baby…

[Speaker 3:]

Arcadia

This is Strategy Control

You have course devation

At five mark six

Acknowledge

[Sarah singing:]

I love you…

[Speaker 1:]

Arcaida

We show condition red

Confirm

[Sarah singing:]

Love me…

[Speaker 3:]

What's going on out there

[Sarah singing:]

Oh…

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

Flashing lights in hyper space

Fighting for the Federation

Hand in hand we'll conquer space

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

Oh…

Space suit is lying on control room floor

Pulse rate increasing as the heat factor soars

Take me, make me feel the force

Ignore the computers, we're locked on course

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

Flashing lights in hyper space

Fighting for the Federation

Hand in hand we'll conquer space

I lost my heart to a starship trooper

Flashing lights in hyper space

Fighting for the Federation

Hand in hand we'll conquer space
