The BFEC'ers Song
FROM AROSS THE ATLANTIC OCEAN
AND THE WIDE PACIFIC SHORES
FROM THE WATERS OF THE ARTIC
INDIAN OCEAN, RED SEA, AND MORE
WE'RE KNOWN AS SPACE FLIGHT TRACKERS
BFEC'ers ARE OUR NAME
IF DATA IS WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
ANYTIME, ANYWHERE'S OUR GAME
FROM THE NORTH POLE TO THE SOUTH POLE
AND THE REACHES OF THE UNIVERSE
WE'VE GATHERED OUR COUNTRY'S DATA
FROM FAR GALAXIES, AND HERE ON THE EARTH
BY SUNLIGHT OR STARS BRIGHT
WHEN IT'S TRACKING WE DO IT RIGHT
WE'RE 24 HOURS TIMES 7
THROUGH CYCLONES, FIRE , OR ARTIC ICE
(CHORUS)
WE'VE NEVER BEEN FOR GLORY
NOR HALLOWED HALLS OF FAME
WE'VE BEEN THROWN OUT OF MORE COUNTRIES
THAN MOST PEOPLE CAN NAME
WE'VE TRACKED THIS WHOLE WORLD OVER
WITH OUR FAMILIES OR ALONE
LIKE THE ROCK OF GIBRALTAR
WE STOOD SOLID AS STONE
IT MATTERS NOT THE MEDIUM
ANY WAVELENGTH THROUGH LIGHT
WE FIXED IT OR DESIGNED IT
BE ASSURED WE GOT IT RIGHT
WITH PRIDE THROUGH OUR RETIREMENTS
WE HOLD OUR HEADS UP HIGH
REGARDLESS OF THE OBSTACLES
WE COULD TRACK ANYTHING THAT FLIES
WHEN SPACE FOLKS ACROSS THE WATER
WERE THE FIRST WITH SPUTNIK UP
WE KNEW IT WOULD TAKE GREAT EFFORT
FOR AMERICA TO CATCH UP
THE REST IS NOW ALL HISTORY
AND WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM HEAVEN
WE RESPONDED COURAGEOUSLY
WITH THE LANDING OF APOLLO 11
(REPEAT CHORUS)
MAY GOD BLESS THIS REUNION
BFEC'ers PRERSENT AND PAST
MAY ALL OUR EFFORTS, FOR OUR COMPANY LAST
IF WE HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL
GENERATIONS WILL CARRY ON
AND JOIN WITH US LATER, IN THIS REUNION SONG
SO HERE'S TO GRAFFIS, WEINGARTEN , AND ENGLE
OUE LEADERS OF THE PAST
AND THE TECHNICAL SUPPORT
THAT MADE THE COMPANY LAST
WE'LL TOAST TO EACH OTHER
BFEC'ers TRIED AND TRUE
UNTIL OUR NEXT REUNION
WE BID EACH OTHER ADIEU
(REPEAT CHORUS)
THE END
