Rocket Ship-
You don’t have a leg to stand on,
you don’t have a stick to beat,
you don’t have a plan to stick to,
can’t pour a drink that’s neat.
So step inside my rocket ship,
I’ll take you for a ride,
to the Milky Way and all the planets,
across the Astro Glide,
See the Earth from miles above,
the clouds from the other side,
I’ll show you what it’s like to love,
floating weightless in the sky.
If you take a chance,
if you skip the beat,
if you can sing this song,
can you take a seat,
to the magic of the Milky Way
and the circles around the sun.
Step inside my rocket ship,
I’ll take you for a ride,
to the Milky Way and all the planets,
across the Astro Glide,
See the Earth from miles above,
the clouds from the other side,
I’ll show you what it’s like to love,
floating weightless in the sky.

Standing on the Sun
It's been a week and a half since you left me,
I can take care of myself,
I still break down from time to time...
That picture on the night-stand,
Your lips look like candy,
I'm sweating and I'm shaking,
And I need some thing to settle down.
I drink when you're not around,
I really knock that cheap wine down...
Cumming in the mayonnaise,
Spreading it on my hair,
Spreading it on your sandwich...
As if you were here,
You wouldn't hear me,
Crying to myself.
But that's okay I'll be fine,
I said that's okay I'll be fine,
I just need some time...
Flying away in my space ship,
Off to see the stars,
I would have taken you along...
But there's no room,
There's no room for you,
There's no room because I
need some place for me feet,
And I'd like to have a few extra seats,
In case some aliens come along...
My feet are on the sun now,
It burns my soles,
I can see your house from here...
It looks so small,
I can barely see you at all,
So far beneath me,
Deprive you of my heat,
Stand on charcoal feet,
Standing on the sun!
Standing on the sun!
Standing on the sun!
Standing on the sun...

Black Velvet Blanket-
Follow the stars at night,
they might take you to where you want to be,
darkness shrouds the lay of the land,
sometimes it’s right to take a stand,
The edge of the world is hard to see in the dark,
but then the stars they shine through the fog,
off in the distance the bark of a dog,
street lamp broke, all the houses are still,
Black velvet blanket, icy cold chill,
If you let the black creep into your soul,
the darkness outside might take control,
black velvet blanket wrap around your skin,
and oh so slowly it will take you in,
But then the stars they shine through the fog,
off in the distance the bark of a dog,
street lamp broke, all the houses are still,
Black velvet blanket, icy cold chill,
Black velvet blanket, icy cold chill,
Black velvet blanket, icy cold chill.

Gravity-
Full moon, up in the sky,
do you know, the reason why,
Gravity! Gravity! Gravity!
Can you wish, upon a star,
in the sky so very far away,
what keeps us here on the ground,
looking to what’s lost,
or what cannot be found,
Gravity! Gravity! Gravity!
Lost and found,
turned upside down,
big round moon,
shines your way,
as the Earth spins,
round and round,
it happens everyday...
Gravity! Gravity! Gravity!

God's Broken Eye
We feel the violence as the comet strikes,
Everything lurches to the left and then,
Spins slowly right.
The smoke it rises to the sky,
Turning day to night,
The sun becomes a dull blood-red,
Throbbing dying heart, in the new night sky.
The Earth crumbles beneath our feet
Into a lake of molten magma fire,
I see my fears reflected in your eyes.
Then we're freed from the comfort confine,
Of Earth's gravity, it falls away,
Into the new night sky,
It falls away.
It falls away.
You take my hand and we are one,
Falling past the moon, beneath the stars,
And towards the sun.
The final breath escapes our worn out
Ragged bleeding lungs, it falls away,
Illusions of this life.
There is no pain there is no fear,
No more joy, no more tears,
It falls away,
Into the the endless night.
There is no you, there is no me,
Only love, energy,
It falls away,
In to God's Broken Eye...
4....3....2....1
We can spin together,
We can spin tonight,
We can spin forever,
Through the new night sky.
We will spin together,
Everything has always been alright,
We will spin forever,
Through the new night sky,
Into the endless night,
Into God's Broken Eye...
