We picked him up in universe 
from another starship around 
He had crashlanded on a planet out here 
and fourteen years later he was found 

From the very beginning he acted very strange 
but okay, he'd been alone for a while 
And maybe that also was the reason why 
he really behaved like a child 

But when he didn't get what he really wanted 
things started to go wrong 

Charlie X - full of power but still a child 
Charlie X - you'd better obey or he will really go wild 
He fell in love with Yeoman, played chess with Spock 
but he couldn't win those games 
Now he got mad, things were destroyed and disappeared 
but he still showed respect for James 

We now realized the strength of his power 
and wondered what he would do 
Would he play around with us for a while 
then get tired and kill us too 

But when he had the ship under total control 
the beings came and brought him home 
Charlie X - full of power but still a child 
Charlie X - you'd better obey or he will really go wild
