9. Hale Boppin

HALE-BOPPIN’
By Andrew Lilly © 2017 ASCAP

Hale-Bopp, Hale-Bopp, the comet of the century
Hale-Bopp, Hale-Bopp, you know it’s gonna set us free

Hale-Bopp, Hale-Bopp, follow the light
Hale-Bopp’s a first class, universal, cosmic flight

We’ve done it all before, now there’s nothin’ left to see
Slip out of that container, can and Hale-Bopp with me.

Hale-Bopp, Hale-Boppin, follow the light
Hale-Bopp, Hale-Bopp, the timin’s just right

Have a bowl of applesauce and a martini straight
It’ll speed up the trip, you sure don’t wanna be late

And we’ll be Hale-Bopp, Hale-Boppin, into the night
Hale-Bopp, Hale-Bopp, the timin’s just right

Put on your new Nikes and bring a plastic sack
Tell your employer that you won’t be comin’ back

‘Cause we’ll be Hale-Bopp, Hale-Boppin, into the night
Hale-Bopp, Hale-Bopp, follow the light

The earth is gonna blow up, gotta leave this old land
We’ll meet true friends and join a travelin’ alien band
And we’ll be Hale-Bopp, Hale-Boppin, follow the light
Hale-Bopp, Hale-Boppin, feels so right
Hale-Bopp, Hale-Boppin, into the night
Hale-Bopp, Hale-Boppin, right out of sight

(Ref: Comet Hale–Bopp (formally designated C/1995 O1) is a comet that was perhaps the most
widely observed of the 20th century, and one of the brightest seen for many decades.)
