Astronauts Lyrics


Starship's leaving at 9 o'clock tonight

and jump beyond to outer space

2000 people are sleeping frozen

in the plastic vessels in the hold

How can we share the love, surely be forgotten

I'm just an ancient young man

What I can give you now is just an instant thrill

Get married with another man

I've been thinking of girls I met

on the planet leaving behind

Quite a few of the strangest changes

that made me sick every time

When I return again she'll be 55

Three months is 30 years for her

How could I catch up such a separated time

Isolation is what I've learnt

There ain't no rest for the astronauts

Flying high up in the sky

You stay away from the astronauts

Caught in the speed of the light

I've been dreaming of settling down

on the peaceful planet just like here

You were the only one that made me feel

I found a quiet life without a fear, but

When I return from the outer space

All I found was just a pain

Oh no, oh no, no no
