Kick It Up A Notch

Scales and exoskeletons?
Why, they pale in comparison
To a body that is covered up by skin
We get rid of those antennae
Give you hair, and clothes and then I
Add two eyes and a nose and my boy, that is only
The beginning

What are you saying?
You'll become a Starship Ranger
Me?
Now listen to me, my confused little friend
We are friends, after all

I used to have my fair share of doubts and fears
And well they quite literally almost ate me alive
But no, I took charge
I pushed it to the limit
So you gotta be strong, be tough
To coin a phrase: "Be a man"

You've gotta kick it up a notch
If you're ever gonna reach your goal
You can't sit around and watch
Your destiny is in your control

Go 'head and kick it up a notch
If your life is at a level too low
There's no attempt that you can botch
When all you gotta do is just give it a go
But then again what do I know?

What I see right there
Is a prisoner
Who's sitting on top of the key
So kick it up a notch
If you ever wanna be free

To be a real Starship Ranger
That would be the coolest thing in the whole world
It would, wouldn't it?
A bug in a human body
You could be the link between our race and theirs
Well, do I even have what it- (ssh)

All you gotta do is
Kick it up a notch
To dig yourself outta this hole
You wanna have the things they got?
Then you gotta give that dice a roll

Kick it up a notch
What's the point of less when there is more?
Have a cigar
A glass of scotch
When opportunity knocks on your door
You let him in and then you settle the score

Life is short so before it's over
Take a chance and think it through
You'd better kick it up a notch
It's the human thing to do

It's a big, big universe
So many dimensions
And unanswered questions
Not to mention, life
What an invention, life

There's no choice, involved in what you are given
One mind, one voice, one body to live in
But
You wanna be a Starship Ranger?
Or is that a dream that you forgot?
You wanna be a Starship Ranger?
Well, this might be your one and only shot

So here's the choice, Bug
You could go on leading your meaningless existence
Or you could take everything you've ever wanted
All I ask in return is that you befriend the humans
And bring them to me
Well Bug, what do you say?

I, I
I think I'll kick it up a notch
I don't care about the queen or the hive
That's the spirit!
Kick 'em all straight in the crotch!
How about that? (Yeah)
Who are they to deprive us of wanting to

Kick it up a notch (I'm gonna be a Starship Ranger)
Never give yourself a reason to doubt
You gotta strike it while it's hot (I'm gonna be a Starship Ranger)
'Cause that's what living's all about
My dear Bug, it's time the lights went out (I'm gonna be a Starship Ranger)

Well, see you on the other side Pincer, I love you
Oh, oh, ah, yeah, I love you too, Bug
I know we are suckers, but that guy's a sucker
Yeah, Jez, what a dumbass
Break out the good china, boys
Tonight, we dine, again!

Kick it up a notch
Oh, my plan is all about to unfold
Let's put a twist into this plot
Bug, go forth, do everything that I've told ya

When we kick it up a notch
It's blood for us
And brains for me
I'm gonna let this little snot
Be everything he's wanted to be
But only because I know he'll actually

Feed my hunger for flesh
I want it warm and fresh
Oh Pincer, you're in for a treat
Let's kick it up a notch (kick it up a notch)
So at last I'll have human meat
