Buckner & Garcia - The Defender

The Defender

Buckner & Garcia 

It's a dirty, filthy job, but it's got to be done;

There's a battle goin' on, it's got to be won.

I'm a million miles from home in a foreign place;

The battleground this time, you see, is outer space.

I'm the Defender, a mutant bender.

I'm the Defender, a mind bender.

I'll defend this state to the end;

I'm the captain of this ship and its men.

There's a lander up ahead, now he's going down;

Now I'm chasing the baiter around and around.

Here comes the bomber, now this is my chance

To fire the laser and watch him dance.

I'm the Defender, a mutant bender.

I'm the Defender, a mind bender.

I'll defend this state to the end;

I'm the captain of this ship and its men.

A pod has appeared at the top of the screen;

They're the hardest to get, if you know what I mean.

A miss, then a hit, now he's fading away;

I've done all I can, at least for today.

I'm the Defender, a mutant bender.

I'm the Defender, a mind bender.

I'll defend this state to the end;

I'm the captain of this ship and its men.

I'm the Defender, I'm the Defender, a mutant bender

I'm the Defender, a mind bender
