The Ballad of the Bebop's Cowboys
An olden tale, but seldom told, of the bounty hunting pros, An ex-policeman mutton chopped and a former mobster cold. Marginalized in their former lives, the two took to the stars, And make a meager living putting thugs behind steel bars. Plagued with debt for laying bets, Faye Valentine arrived And soon behind her Edward left the ruined Earth behind. They orbit Martian terra starved for anything that pays And the grueling days and piqued malaise and cowboy ways Have left their freer spirits to waist away As they scurry to and fro across the system Sol Each consumed by solitude on the fringes of society But they are closer to each other than any family dreams to be.
