lyrics

See the sun a-risin' o'er the Turakina shore.
See the spaceships landing in the pumpkin patch once more.
See the aliens alight,
they come in peace to do what's right.
They march under the banner of TurkbyTone Rekkids now.

TurkbyTone Rekkids is run by Jim the K.
He's always very happy, if everything goes his way.
He's standing on the sunny shores to greet his alien friends.
All of them work for TurkbyTone Rekkids now.

Chorus:
Well have you seen the Turkby team?
They come from way out there in space.
Yeah have you seen the Turkby team?
They've been outsourced from outer space.

The Turkby team flies around in fancy spacey ships,
distributing pamphlets and handy cleaning tips.
They come in peace but then again,
they make a lot of noise.
There really is no accounting for boys.

Their promo duties over, they board for outer space,
but scanning through the crowd,
they look for Jim K's face.
He really is their hero, but nobody knows why.
The secret must be out there in the sky.

Chorus.
