I was in the spirit of Joyce doing some wordplay, by morphing "ho" into "hey", which both refers to our Hiberno past in the form of "hay", and our Anglo tongue with the "e" (for England) in the middle. You moron.

Ulysses, Ulysses - Soaring through all the galaxies,
In search of Earth, flying in to the night.
Ulysses, Ulysses - Fighting evil and tyranny,
With all his power, and with all of his might.
Ulysses - no-one else can do the things you do.
Ulysses - like a bolt of thunder from the blue.
Ulysses - always fighting off the evil forces bringing peace and justice to all.

It's me Nono small robot you know - friend of Uly-sses.
It's me Nono small robot you know - friend of Uly-sses.



Ulysses, Ulysses - could not find his destiny,
Leaving earth, such a long time ago.
Ulysses - like a mighty warrior in the sky.
Ulysses - with his small companions by his side.
Ulysses - Unlike a king he's not protected by the Gods of every form in his way.


It's me Nono small robot you know - friend of Uly-sses.

Yeah I've seen it once or twice, unfortunately it's nowhere near as good as it was when I was a nipper. Nice that they try to educate though.

i think the same guy did Ulysses 31 and some older Gundam stuff... might have just been the same studio though.
