when you build a ship to sail deep sp-ce
you can’t have a crew of mortal race
’cause a hundred years from star to star
with a human crew is just too far

think of all the beer you’d have to carry
not to mention food
and, uh, other necessities

so you fill your ship with a robot crew
and you build a computer captain, too
you get some experience for free
from some old sp-cer’s personality

maybe an old shuttle pilot
who’s just learned from his last mistake
that’s where i come in

so you take some bloke who’s halfway dead
and you haul him home and you scan his head
and a hundred years of flying high
is a d-mned good deal when you’re about to die

’til you’ve had a decade or two to think it over
gets lonely out here
a thousand frozen colonists don’t count

so there behind my solar sail
are five hundred hunks of frozen tail
but if i thawed one and you know i could
it wouldn’t do me a bit of good

what would i use?
i’ve got no d-mned body, just a starship
couldn’t even… oh, the heck with it!

now a couple of billion miles astern
it’s another lonesome sucker’s turn
so i’ll radio back and say “hey you–
oh, i didn’t know they took women, too!”

“lovely night tonight, isn’t it?
look at all them pretty stars
yeah, me too.”

so we’ll talk, and murmer “i love you”
like other star-crossed lovers do
and in eighty years we’ve made a date—
did you ever see two starships mate?

we’ve got our robot crews
and we figure they can put together—
oh, none of your d-mned business!
