Commander Toad

Verse 1

Who is this man, who stands so calm and silent
While gazing out into the great abyss?
His face serene, his eyes bespeak a wisdom
Caught from the stars, a deep unfathomed bliss

He sails his mighty ship across the night skies
Its emerald sheen reflects a thousand suns
So quietly it flies, as out the portholes
Uncounted worlds winking off and on

Verse 2

Among the fleet, no man is like the Captain
He stands apart, unequalled, bright and brave
Forever sworn to plumb arcane expanses
The primal depths beneath galactic waves

An ancient traveler he, for hidden ages
Traversing glad this solitary road
Where he has gone, no mortal man may follow
For he is not a man, he is a toad!

Chorus

COMMANDER TOAD
COMMANDER TOAD
COMMANDER TOAD!

Verse 3

It was Commander Toad that reprimanded
The fugitives escaping to the moon
They hadn't counted on his missile launchers
That proved adverse to their hot air balloon

Commander Toad has crossed the gaping cosmos
No planet is there where he is unknown
His image shines upon the constellations
His name is writ in earth's foundation stone

Verse 4

Commander Toad was there Before the stars were thrown into the sky

The likes of which the gods cannot descry

Commander Toad, O may he live forever!
Who roamed the spheres before the world began
Who saw the deep, Who climbed the highest heaven
Surpassing all the kings of mortal man
