[JOEY]
I wanna be
A Starship Ranger
I wanna have
The things they've got
I could be
A Starship Ranger
But there's just one little...
Thing they are...
I'm not

[BRIAN]
All of my life I've pictured them out there
Keeping the peace in outer space
I may not be up there with 'em
But I've got what it takes

I've got a hunger and thirst for adventure
I wanna travel the galaxy
The future is now, so I don't see how
The time isn't right for me

[MEREDITH]
And I'll admit
It's all in my head
But who says it can't be real?
I may be far away
But I can safely say
It doesn't change the way I feel
[DYLAN]
I wanna be
A Starship Ranger
Even if it might sound strange
Maybe now
I'm not a Ranger
But all of that is right about to change

(spoken)
What's up, New York City?

[LAUREN]
All of your life you've had your head stuck
Up in the gaseous atmosphere
Don't forget that dirt is solid
And clouds can disappear

When you're an insect, you have a purpose
Like it or not, from a fly to a flea
Need I remind you, leave that stuff behind
So you can find what yours can be?

[JAIME]
'Cause the needs
Of the many bugs
Outweigh the few
And everybody knows
It's just the way it goes
And there's nothing you can do
[JOE]
You wanna be
A Starship Ranger?
Discover worlds far and near
Who gives a crap about Starship Rangers?
The greatest life to live is found right here

[DYLAN, spoken]
Let's go!

[ENSEMBLE]
Dirt eater!
Exoskeleton polisher!
I wanna build honeycombs!
The bug that ruins your picnic!
A fly on the wall!

We've all got a job to do
And it's how we all survive
By giving our lives to the hive

'Cause the needs
Of the many bugs...
They outweigh the few

I know today's the day (Today's the day)
I will find what I'm meant to do
[LAUREN]
The queen will surely see I'm not like anyone else

[JOE]
She'll take one look and know my rightful calling

[DYLAN]
She'll understand that I just can't be
Living my life for the hive

And I can finally

[ENSEMBLE]
Finally

[DLYAN]
Know what it's like to be alive...

[ENSEMBLE]
I wanna be something that can
Serve the greater good of our race
I'll do whatever I can
To make our world a better place

[JOEY]
If only I could get to outer space!

I wanna be a Starship Ranger
It doesn't matter at all where I'm from
So look out, Starship Rangers
'Cause here I am...

[ENSEMBLE]
Here I am

[JOEY]
And here I come!

[ENSEMBLE]
Dirt eater!
Exoskeleton polisher!
I wanna build honeycombs!
The bug that ruins your picnic!

[ALL]
It's all I wanna be!
