Albert 1-5 |
| They didn’t ask to be a part of the mission |
| They’ve never fathomed life among the stars |
| And they were made to live among the brush and the branches |
| But they couldn’t fight the sleep inside our darts, shooting darts |
| And they rolled away, their hands wrapped round the bars, metal bars |
| Words are like the highest fruits in the tree tops |
| Just too high and just outside their reach |
| They can’t even say a simple «yes» or a «no» |
| As we strapped them down into the captain’s seat, captain’s seat |
| They were bound and shackled down around their feet |
| They are the captive captains |
| And none of them will make it out alive |
| They are the captive captains |
| Hurled into the mystery at the speed of light |
| They are the primal pioneers, the unsung heroes |
| They are Albert 1 through 5 |
| Albert 1 through 5, up in the sky |
| They didn’t ask to be part of the mission |
| They’ve never given any thought to life on Mars |
| But when the fire burned bright as the sun down below them |
| A smokey river whisked them to the stars, to the stars |
| And they rolled away inside those metal bars |
| They are the captive captains |
| And none of them will make it out alive |
| Oh, they are the captive captains |
| Hurled into the mystery at the speed of light |
| Oh, they are the primal pioneers, the unsung heroes |
| They are Albert 1 through 5 |
| Albert 1 through 5, oh up in the sky |
| Ooo the moons of Jupiter, always on the rise |
| Ooo the blooms of bamboo shoots, reaching for the sky |
| Who could know the weightlessness of nothing left to fight? |
| Who is moving upwards through the trees until there’s nothing left to climb? |
| Albert 1 through 5 |
| Every year feels just a little faster |
| Another trip around and round the closest sun |
| And there’s no ground to drag my feet on |
| Can we go a little slower? |
| Deep into the mystery I’m flung |
| We are the captive captains |
| And none of us will make it out alive |
| Oh, we are the captive captains |
| Hurled into the mystery at the speed of light |
| Oh, we are the primal pioneers, the unsung heroes |
| We are Albert 1 through 5 |
| Albert 1 through 5 |
| Albert 1 through 5 |
| Albert 1 through 5 |
