"Space Age Bachelor Man"
(from "Ride The Cyclone: The Musical (World Premiere Cast Recording)" soundtrack)

[Ricky:]
You might see before you
An ordinary man
Ha! an earthly illusion
All a part of the cosmic plan

Yes, long ago, they visited
Those others from outer space
Informed me I'm the chosen one
To save the zolarian race!

It's true. Listen...

[Noel/Mischa as aliens:]
Ricky, we are a distant galaxy
A galaxy greatly in need
Of your groove, you kink-o-matic powers
Yes we need your freak–tastic seed

[Ricky:]
They took me then, to their daughters' realm
The land of the kitty cat star
I know you've heard the legends of

[Ricky and choir:]
The sexy cat women from zolar!

[Cat noises]

[Constance/Jane/Ocean:]
Meow
Meow

[Constance (sexy pleading):]
Make love to me, Ricky

[Ricky:]
What?

[Constance/Jane/Ocean:]
Meow
Meow

[Ricky:]
Okay

[Ocean:]
But there's one more small thing. Won't you please help save our galaxy

[Constance and Ocean:]
Ricky?

[Ricky:]
Sure

What would you do in my place?
A mere mortal man?
With the fate of a galaxy before you
Millions of lives in your hand?

The naughty daughters of the realm
All hungry for my chi
You'd never guess the role I played
In zolarian history!

I'm just a swingin'...
Space age...
Bachelor man

Let's dance, kitties

[Tracked Ricky (tracked Constance, Jane, Ocean):]
(Meow)
Meow
(Meow)
Meow
(Meow)
Meow
(Meow)
Meow
(Meow)
Meow
(Meow)
Meow
(Meow)

[Tracked foursome:]
Meow, meow meow meow, meow!

[Ricky:]
It gets weird now

[Noel/Mischa as aliens:]
Ricky, you've lain with our daughters
You're our hero, our saving grace
But now there is a new challenge
For zolaria to face...

[Ricky:]
For they're at war with k-9
Count dog-u-lous, that son of a bitch!

[Choir (except Jane):]
That son of a bitch!

[Ricky:]
The generals are all standing by

[Ricky and choir (except Jane):]
Tell us Ricky, should we pull the switch?

[Constance/Jane/Ocean:]
Meow
Meow

[Ricky:]
Oh my goodness, what have I gotten myself into?!

[Constance/Ocean:]
Meow
Meow

[Ricky:]
Why are they asking me? I'm a lover, not a fighter! I thought I told them:

I'm just a swingin'...
Space age...
Bachelor man

So I told them

"I am just a man
A space age man, that's all I am
But I wanna hold your hands
All your hands
As we make love tonight

Oh, I have no desire to rule the galaxy
Oh, to hold you close
Is enough for me
Making love in zero gravity-y-y-y! woah!"
Hey!

[Choir (repeating):]
Makin' love
Makin' love
Makin' love
On just love zolar!

[Ricky:]
Zolar! woo!

[Choir (repeating):]
Makin' love
Makin' love
Makin' love
On just love zolar!

[Ricky:]
Uh!
I've got to
I've got to make

You're my catnip. You're the most...
You're such a pretty, gritty kitty
I wanna be, your scra-hatchin' post
Let me be, let me be, let me be...!

[Choir (repeating):]
Makin' love
Makin' love
Makin' love
On just love...!

[Ricky:]
And they listened. and they heard my message, for I was singing notes that only cats or cat people could hear. a g#, 5 octaves above middle c

[Almost inaudibly high note]

Incredible. Peace was restored. I guess that's what happens...

When you're a swingin'...
Space age...
Bachelor man

So I came back to earth
To show you the way
To lead you pretty people
To a brighter day

We can save the whole galaxy
With love from the heart!
And sexy cat ladies that, that, that's where we'll start!

Yes, I came back to this rock!
With my love and my seed!
Ladies, you got what I want!
And you know I've got what you need!

Cause I'm a swinging!
Space age!
Bra-ba-ba-ba-bachelor man!

[Choir:]
Bachelor man!

[Tracked choir:]
Meow!
