The Hitchhiker’s Guide
(Erika Labinsky)

Far out in the uncharted backwaters
Of the end of the galaxy
There was a little blue planet whose people thought
Digital watches were a pretty neat idea
Living under an unregarded yellow sun
At the end of the galaxy
With many problems they had for pretty much of the time
They weren't living their life happily

And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time
And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time

All the problems remained, lots of the people were mean
At the end of the galaxy
They thought, oh probably we've made a big mistake
In coming down from our snugly tree
And even this man who had been nailed to a tree
At the end of the galaxy
Hadn't changed the world until a lonely girl
Saw what was going wrong on earth finally

And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time
And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time

Far out in the uncharted backwaters
Of the end of the galaxy
There was a little blue planet whose people thought
Digital watches were a pretty neat idea
Living under an unregarded yellow sun
At the end of the galaxy
With many problems they had for pretty much of the time
They weren't living their life happily

And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time
And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time

It's the story of a book never published on earth
Never seen or never heard
Never seen or never heard
It's the story of a book never published on earth
Never seen or never heard
Never seen or never heard
It's the story of a book never published on earth
Never seen or never heard
Never seen or never heard
It's the story of a book never published on earth
Until the terrible catastrophe occurred

And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time

And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide,
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time
And now he's travelling along
With the hitchhiker's guide
So long and thanks for the fish
So long and have a good time
