We two fish in a vacuum
Swim across the sparkling velvet
We bathe in black champagne
We toast with clink of helmet
If you could see the danger loom
Would you try to forewarn?
Or sit right up there on the moon
With a big ol' bucket of popcorn?
Our arrogance can't help us now, and it hurts a little,
Our laser beams can't help us now, our world so burned and brittle.
This great expanse can't help us now, our loneliness increases,
All our futures shattered, and we float among the pieces.
Chrome and 50's pinup lips
The starlight in your eyes
Just we and one last jetpack trip
Across the lurex sky.
I will sing you a starchild lullabye
Can you still hear me in your speaker?
The static crackles God's reply,
Your signal's getting weaker.
Let's blow the hatch and blaze a trail
Bright across the sky
And weightless I will drift with you
Until our batt'ries die.
And weightless I will drift with you
And bid our friends goodbye.
