Lyrics for They Punctured My Yolk

They never called me Up to the tower We gave it to them They had the power, And power is the thing That made you take off from me We trained hard for the mission, All floating over, Though we're in zero gravity, It pulled us closer We were once off to the planets, 陌nside our space suits Now I'm left here on the landing, The rockets flame burst, And it's leaving without me, And you go off to the sky Good-bye, good-bye Look as the clouds burst, They're growing taller, As your ship leaves in the distance My world gets smaller, And it takes you worlds away, A million light years from me Oh, Oh, Oh
