Come fly with us the travelers
To the fastest planet in our universe
A dangerous path we must traverse
The Trajectory mapped by Mariner
Mercury can retrograde from earth to them
To us it's getting near
We have nothing to fear
The weight of iron beneath our feet
Half of 58 days consumed by heat
38 percent has a hold of me
Sun that's twice as large at it's 'sposed to be
Our time is running short
Grab the gear and close the door
Flight control we have a go
Instruments and radio
Take a look for one last time
Mercury is retrograding from our view
Did all there was to do
Now on to something new
