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 |
