It's a dirty, filthy job, but it's got to be done; There's a battle goin' on, it's got to be won. I'm a million miles from home in a foreign place; The battleground this time, you see, is outer space. I'm the Defender, a mutant bender. I'm the Defender, a mind bender. I'll defend this state to the end; I'm the captain of this ship and its men. There's a lander up ahead, now he's going down; Now I'm chasing the baiter around and around. Here comes the bomber, now this is my chance To fire the laser and watch him dance. I'm the Defender, a mutant bender.
I'm the Defender, a mind bender. I'll defend this state to the end; I'm the captain of this ship and its men. A pod has appeared at the top of the screen; They're the hardest to get, if you know what I mean. A miss, then a hit, now he's fading away; I've done all I can, at least for today. I'm the Defender, a mutant bender. I'm the Defender, a mind bender. I'll defend this state to the end; I'm the captain of this ship and its men. I'm the Defender, I'm the Defender, a mutant bender I'm the Defender, a mind bender
