Lyrics for NASA Is On Your Side
I awake in the future, I have turned to stone with fear Laid on petrified trees, oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh In a high school massacre, I'm fossilized and clear The teenage terrorists freeze, oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh We began dismantling the stadia and schools Singing, "Save our simian souls", oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Polished up warm bullets hanging static in the air Droplets glittering home, oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh NASA knows how the pheromones Cascade down the walls You can't help the way you feel You're the crudest oil, let your vision boil Yeah, they're gonna dig a coal-face out of you Isambard, I'm all steel Chasing homeless cheerleaders through the sewers lit By burning polythene bags (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Pushing flame scorched limos to the oil rig tonight For the promenade dance (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Fill your locker with an arsenal Hieroglyphic every particle Mother all about the coal and the lava and the gas that we are Lovers on the landfill digging me up to fuel rockets and risk (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, they'll save us) Look across now, honey, the horizon I can see a shuttle birth, is it a boy? Or a girl? Or a gun? I know it's ludicrous to be lost There's never been a time like this Oh-oh-oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Everyone is gonna end up there You're overcome, but NASA is on your side And it's happening, the sky is shattering And they're gonna make a Death Star out of you But NASA is on your side Yeah, NASA is on your side Yeah, NASA is on your side NASA is on your side NASA is on your side And everyone is gonna end up there You're overcome, but NASA is on your side Yeah, NASA is on your side Yeah, NASA is on your side There were children climbing over fridges in a rush To see the death of the sun, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh And we laughed all night when they said, "Treasure in the sky" And we had nothing but fun, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
