about

This was almost completely Rick's song, except for the half-talked verse. It was around when we recorded Land of Opportunity, but was never recorded back then. Steve Berlin came over to Mike's house the day after a Los Lobos gig in Milwaukee and added his deluxe sax to it. I love it.

lyrics

Come Fly With Me
©2005 Rick Szeluga/Steve Summers

A-She's my be-boppin' baby with the double ray guns
Whoo!

I said-a l've got a girl from another planet
(whoo) She's pretty cool her name is Janet
l like-a her an she digs me
An' that's the way it was meant to be
She's pretty cool she gimme a rocket
I said-a she's my baby so don't try to knock it
A-l can't keep a-my hands off her
She's my be-boppin' baby an that's for sure

Come fly with me
Come fly with me
Come fly with me
She's my be-boppin' baby with the double ray guns

l said-a Bang! Bang! Bang!
You dirty Martian
I said-a bite the dust you stinkin' Martian
A-Don't try to steal my girl from me
Or you'll soon be just a memory
Now our life a-reads like a-science fiction
We're always on the impossible mission
When we get a-hand in a-hand for marriage
A-We'll blast off in our rocket carriage

Come fly with me
Come fly with me
Come fly with me
She's my be-boppin' baby with the double ray guns
Whoooo!

l said-a git cher slimy green hands off 'er ya stinkin' Martian
l'm gonna blast you with my phaser
Plug you with my laser
I'm gonna rub you out with my cosmic eraser

Cause she's my
a-be-bop be-boppin' baby
a-be-bop be-boppin' baby
a-be-bop be-boppin' baby
a-be-bop be-boppin' baby
a-be-bop be-boppin' baby
my be-boppin' baby with the double ray guns
Whooo!

EIEIO Sierra Madre, California

EIEIO, est. 1983, put out "Land of Opportunity" and "That Love Thang" on Frontier Records in the mid '80's. In 1999 after a ten year break, we decided to play again and released "EIEIO" in 2007. Here you'll get unreleased material, and hopefully new material from Rob Harding, Mike Hoffmann, Mike Gorman, Scott Gorsuch and me, Steve Summers, time and distance permitting. Thanks for checking in. ... more
