I’m just a tired tourist
caught in my own attraction
above the tilt-a-whirl of love
The cosmonaut is captured
The astronaut enraptured
Centrifugal are your forces
I can’t break free of your orbit
Me and all the other space cadets
and pioneers who try to enter
we keep burning up
But I’m not giving up
I’m gonna fly
into the night sky
Centrifugal are your forces
I can’t break free of your orbit
Me and all the other
space cadets and rocket girls,
observer chimps with golden curls
across the universe we hurl
like poets from a distant world
filled with hope and out of luck
we try to break through
but we keep burning up
