Captain Scarlet Theme Song Lyrics
Captain Scarlet
He’s the one who knows the Mysteron game
And things that they plan
Captain Scarlet
To his Martian foes a dangerous name
A superman
They crash him and his body may burn
They smash him but they know he’ll return to live again
Captain Scarlet
As the Angels are flying wing to wing
Into the scene spectrum Is Green
Captain Scarlet
Though the Mysteron’s plan is to conquer the earth
This indestructible man will show what he’s worth
Captain Scarlet
Thee Indistructable Captain Scarlet
