lyrics

-“So strange...”
-“What’s strange?”
-“To stand so close to the rail and still not fall over the edge.”
-“It’s a good thing there’s fifty percent less gravity here.”
-“That is good.”
-“Let’s am-scray.”
-“Alright.”

We have to mine this moon, for what we’ve lost back home.
Same dust that drapes my suit... contaminates the air.
Can’t be done too soon, miss someone I know.

...And you wait there, on Terra firma, feet planted firmly... for me When I said I’d be there on Tuesday, did I neglect to mention Which century?

...And you wait there, on Terra firma, feet planted firmly... for me.
When I said I’d be there on Tuesday, did I neglect to mention
Which century?

Pushed to hard to get to you, engines burned through all of the fuel.
...Now my ship’s adrift in the cosmos...
Here alone, with my drone, no direction home
And I lost the charger for my phone.

-“Please don’t call me a drone!’”
-“Excuse me?”
-“I’m an artificially intelligent life form.”
-“Sorry. I’m... not... thinking... clearly.”
-“It’s alright. I understand. I’m worried too.”
-*Sigh, “It’s gonna be a long trip.”

Ahh Ahh Ahhohwoooo
...Now she’ll know the truth, my status on that moon... blue-collared goon. But wait, I might not have to stay abroad.
Be a man, do what I can.
...As me and my droid strap in to the escape pod.

My android friend found Earth’s coordinates.
Time to suit-up and put on my big boy pants.
Is it too late to start believin’ in God?
...As me and my droid strap in to the escape pod.

Take too long to get to you, these engines are tapped dry too.
...Now my pods lost in the ether...
If I’m too late, she won’t wait, find a new mate,
Then I’ll just date her great, great, great, great, great granddaughter.
