This mashup — based on a typo! — of The Last Unicorn (and its theme song) and the Transformers movie may be one of the most 80s things I've ever written.

lyrics by Benjamin Newman
ttto: "The Last Unicorn" by America

listen to this song

/ Em C - D / / Em Bm C G / C G C D - /
 
When the last starship flies out from the last crumbling station
And the last robots gaze out at the vast desolation
In the shadow of a world that will not see another dawn
They will stare unbelieving at the last Unicron
 
When they look to the sky, it's no moon that is rising
But a machine with a maw that stretches across the horizon
That can swallow a whole planet, 'til the planet is just gone
But no world can sate the hunger of the last Unicron
 
/ G Em D Em / - Bm C D - /
 
It's alive!  It's alive!
 
In the War of the Ancients they strode between the stars like giants
But when Cybertron was formed, the Transformers rose up in defiance
Thinking all had been destroyed, they learned too late that one lives on
All the galaxy's in danger from the last Unicron
 
When the last moon collapses into a new star of morning
And the last fleet is trapped without even a last desperate warning
Then look into the sky where through the stars a path is drawn
Face your fear and bring the battle to the last Unicron!
 
We'll survive!  We'll survive!
