Apogee |
Sailing round the true-blue sphere--- |
Is it too late to bale out of here? |
Well, there has to be some better way |
To turn back the night |
Spin on to yesterday |
The old man and his crew--- |
After all these years |
It’s apogee |
Pilot training and remorse--- |
Spirit friends fly too |
At apogee |
Apogee --- solar bright |
Apogee --- through the night |
Apogee --- overground |
Don’t think I’ll be coming down |
Screened for a stable mate |
With nerves of ice we flew |
At apogee |
No creativity allowed |
To pass through stainless veins of steel |
At apogee |
Apogee --- put the kettle on |
Tight-lipped --- soldier on |
High point --- communicate |
Don’t forget to urinate |
So glad they put this window in |
How to explain, how to begin? |
See! |
Tennyson and Wordsworth there |
Waiting for me in the cold, thin air |
Beware a host of unearthly daffodils |
Drifting golden, turned up loud |
Tell the boys back home |
I’m gonna get some |
The Wrong Stuff’s loose in here --- |
I’m climbing up the walls |
At apogee |
So hoist the skull and bones --- |
Death and glory’s free |
At apogee |
A stranger wind, a solar breeze --- |
I’m walking out upon the starry seas |
See pyramids, see standing stones --- |
Pink cotton undies and blue telephones |
Goodbye, cruel world that was my home --- |
There’s a cleaner space out there to roam |
Put my feet up on the moons of Mars --- |
Sit back, relax and count the stars |
