Well take a trip with me in 1967 with grisom white and cavier.
The rocket ride to haven.
A dead end date aboard AS204.
It was American made, only the best for our boys.
And we were rocking at the t-dance.
Oh rocking at the t-dance.

I had another date with the homecoming queen.
I took her to the prom in apollo 13.
We orbit the moon, we couldn't get home.
Little queenies momma is pissed cause her baby did vote. And we were rocking at the t-dance.
Oh rocking a the t-dance.
Well can i get this fixed today?
Its not my job.
But i need it so bad.
Its not my job.
well triple time is what i'll pay.
Its not my job.
But I need it so bad!
Need you so bad....

Well take trip with me, to Kansas City MO.
To the hiate house, to the big dance floor.
You can still see the ghost but you can't see the sins.
Why they let the monkey go and blamed the monkey wrench.
And we were rocking at the T-dance.
Rocking at the T-dance.

Dig it.
The rocket ride to haven.
A dead end date aboard AS204.
It was American made, only the best for our boys.
And we were rocking at the t-dance.
Oh rocking at the t-dance.
I took her to the prom in apollo 13.
We orbit the moon, we couldn't get home.
Little queenies momma is pissed cause her baby did vote. And we were rocking at the t-dance.
Oh rocking a the t-dance.
Its not my job.
But i need it so bad.
Its not my job.
well triple time is what i'll pay.
Its not my job.
But I need it so bad!
Need you so bad....
To the hiate house, to the big dance floor.
You can still see the ghost but you can't see the sins.
Why they let the monkey go and blamed the monkey wrench.
And we were rocking at the T-dance.
Rocking at the T-dance.
Dig it.

3rd line should be Grisson , White and Chaffee, refers to the Astronauts who died in Apollo 1. a mission that was never flown, due to a fire in the capsule that killed all three men.
I think line 13 should be "cause her baby didn't phone" refering to the portion of the flight when Apollos 13 was out of comunication when it was on the far side of the moon.
The t dance refers to a "tea dance" which was being held at the Hyatt in KC ., July 17 1981, due to a change made in the design to save money , a skywalk collapsed killing 114 people.
the line you cant see the sins might actually be 'can't see the sense or cents.
All 3 verses refer to incidents caused by failures in man made objects , probably due to cost cutting and or little forethought to how they could fail.
