We had a lot of luck on Venus
We always had a ball on Mars
Meeting all the groovey people
We've rocked the Milky Way so far
We danced around with Borealice
We're space truckin' round the the stars
Come on let's go Space Truckin'
Remember when we did the moonshot
And Pony Trekker led the way
We'd move to the Canaveral moonstop
And everynaut would dance and sway
We got music in our solar system
We're space truckin' round the stars
Come on let's go Space Truckin'
The fireball that we rode was moving
But now we've got a new machine
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah the freaks said
Man those cats can really swing
They got music in their solar system
They've rocked around the Milky Way
They dance around the Borealice
They're Space Truckin' everyday
Moteurs
L'action se déroule dans ta ville
Vue d'hélicoptère ou du haut d'un building
Et puis la caméra zoome avant
Jusqu'à ton appartement
Ainsi soit-il
Tel est le nom du film
Comme il est dit dans l'scénario
Gros plan de toi dans ton berceau
Comme il est précisé dans le script
Lumière tamisée flou artistique
Ainsi soit-il
Tel est le nom du film
Sur la bande son les cloches qui sonnent
Fondu enchaîné sur la cour d'une école
Un lièvre une tortue ou trois mousquetaires
Et plus tard Les Fleurs Du Mal de Charles Baudelaire
Ainsi soit-il
Tel est le nom du film
Autre séquence autre scène
Oui champ contre champ gros plan sur elle
T'as raison y a qu'lamour qui vaille la peine
Demande à l'éclairagiste qu'il éteigne
Ainsi soit-il
Tel est le nom du film
Flash-back tu regardes en arrière
Oui toutes les choses que t'as pas pu faire
Tu voudrais disparaître dans l'rétroviseur
Mais personne n'a jamais arrêté l'projecteur
Ainsi soit-il
Tel est le nom du film
Travelling sur un corbillard qui passe
Sans faire de bruit sans laisser de trace
Un bébé qui pleure dans la maison d'en face
Quand quelqu'un s'en va un autre prend sa place
Ainsi soit-il
Tel est le nom du film
Alors la caméra zoome arrière
Et tu r'montes dans l'hélicoptère

Volano gli uccelli volano
nello spazio tra le nuvole
con le regole assegnate
a questa parte di universo
al nostro sistema solare.
Aprono le ali
scendono in picchiata, atterrano
meglio di aeroplani
cambiano le prospettive al mondo
voli imprevedibili ed ascese velocissime
traiettorie impercettibili
codici di geometria esistenziale.
Migrano gli uccelli emigrano
con il cambio di stagione
giochi di aperture alari
che nascondono segreti
di questo sistema solare.
What are words worth?
What are words worth? - words
Words in papers, words in books
Words on tv, words for crooks
Words of comfort, words of peace
Words to make the fighting cease
Words to tell you what to do
Words are working hard for you
Eat your words but don't go hungry
Words have always nearly hung me
What are words worth?
What are words worth? - words
Its a rap race, with a fast pace
Concrete words, abstract words
Crazy words and lying words
Hazy words and dying words
Words of faith and tell me straight
Rare words and swear words
Good words and bad words
What are words worth?
What are words worth? - words
Words can make you pay and pay
Four-letter words I cannot say
Panty, toilet, dirty devil
Words are trouble, words are subtle
Words of anger, words of hate
Words over here, words out there
In the air and everywhere
Words of wisdom, words of strife
Words that write the book I like
Words won't find no right solution
To the planet earth's pollution
Say the right word, make a million
Words are like a certain person
Who can't say what they mean
Don't mean what they say
With a rap rap here and a rap rap there
Here a rap, there a rap
Everywhere a rap rap
Rap it up for the common good
Let us enlist the neighbourhood
It's okay, I've overstood
This is a wordy rappinghood, okay, bye.
I'd like to drop my trousers to the world
I am a man of means, of slender means
Each household appliance
Is like a new science in my town
And if the day came when I felt a natural emotion
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump in the ocean
And when a train goes by
It's such a sad sound
It's such a sad thing
Radio, live transmission.
Radio, live transmission.
Listen to the silence, let it ring on.
Eyes, dark grey lenses frightened of the sun.
We would have a fine time living in the night,
Left to blind destruction,
Waiting for our sight.
Ground control to major Tom
Ground control to major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
(Ten) Ground control (Nine) to major Tom (Eight)
(Seven, six) Commencing countdown (Five), engines on (Four)
(Three, two) Check ignition (One) and may gods (Blastoff) love be with you
This is ground control to major Tom, you've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to leave the capsule if you dare
This is major Tom to ground control, I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
Here am I floatin' 'round my tin can far above the world
Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles, I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much, she knows
Ground control to major Tom, your circuits dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me, major Tom?
Can you hear me, major Tom?
Can you hear me, major Tom?
Can you...
Here am I sitting in my tin can far above the Moon
Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
2095, 2095, 2095, 2095
I love you, sincerely
Yours truly, yours truly...
I sent a message to another time
But as the days unwind, this I just can't believe
I sent a note across another plane
Maybe it's all a game, but this I just can't conceive.
Can you hear me?
I drive the very latest hovercar
I don't know where you are
But I miss you so much till then
I met someone who looks a lot like you
She does the things you do
But she is an IBM.
2095, 2095, 2095, 2095
I love you, sincerely
Yours truly, yours truly...
She's only programmed to be very nice
But she's as cold as ice
Whenever I get too near
She tells me that she likes me very much
But when I try to touch
She makes it all too clear.
She is the latest in technology
Almost mythology
But she has a heart stone
She has an I.Q. of 1001
She has a jumpsuit on
And she's also a telephone.
2095, 2095, 2095, 2095
I love you, sincerely
Yours truly, yours truly...
Is that what you want? (Is it what you want?)
Is it what you really want? (Is it what you really want?)
Is that what you want? (Is it what you want?)
Is it what you really want?
I realize that it must seem so strange
That time has rearranged
But time has the final word
She knows I think of you, she reads my mind
She tries to be unkind
She knows nothing of our world
Although her memory banks overflow
No one would ever know
For all she says: "Is that what you want?"
Maybe one day I'll feel her cold embrace
And kiss her interface
'Til then, I'll leave her alone.
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
When the paralytic dreams that we all seem to keep
Drive on engines till they weep
With future pixels in factories far away
So call the mainland from the beach
Your heart is now washed up in bleach
The waves are rising for this time of year
And nobody knows what to do with the heat
Under sunshine pylons we'll meet while
Rain is falling like rhinestones from the sky
I got a feeling now my heart is frozen
All the phoses and growsin
Happy and after native in my soul
I prayed on the unmovable
Yeah clinging to the adam's of rock
Seasons seas just smooth Signs are change
I cant see now she said taxi
I that light is so I can take
Storm bring strange loyalties
I'm a scary gargoyle on a tower
That you made with plastic power
Your rhinestone eyes are like factories far away
(Here we go again)
(That's electric)
Helicopters fly over the beach
Same time everyday same routine
Clear target in the summer when skies are blue
Its part of the noise when winter comes
It reverberates in my lungs
Natures' corrupted in factories far away
Your love's like rhinestones, falling from the sky
With future pixels in factories far away
I fidget with the digit dots and cry an anxious tear
As the XU-1 connects the spot
But the matrix grid don't care
Get a message to my mother
What number would she be
There's a million angry citizens
Looking down their tubes at me
Computer games
There's safety in numbers, they say
'Cause the figures never lie
No perfect persons ever noticed one computer die
I'm programmed to a schedule
What will the answer be
Is it suicide run till the work gets done
'Cause the matrix grid don't say
Computer games
Jammed up tight by red traffic lights
Advance one level on green
These opportune commuters
They're blasting on their hooters
I fidget with the digit dots
Frustration rules out there
As the XU-1 connects the spot
But the matrix grid don't care
Did you see that I've got a lot to learn?
Well don't think I'm trying not to learn,
Since this is the perfect spot to learn -
Oooh, teach me tonight!
Let's start with the ABC of it,
Roll right down to the XYZ of it
Help me solve the mystery of it,
Teach me tonight!
The sky's a blackboard high above you,
If a shooting star goes by,
I'll use that star, to write I love you,
A thousand times across the sky.
One thing isn't very clear my love,
Should the teacher stand so near my love?
Graduation's almost here my love,
Come on and teach me tonight.
I'll use that star to write I love you,
A thousand times across the sky,
One thing isn't very clear my love
Should the teacher stand so near my love,
Graduation's almost here my love,
Teach me......please teach me tonight!
She's just a cosmic girl
From another galaxy
My heart's at zero gravity
She's from a cosmic world
Putting me in ecstasy
Transmitting on my frequency
She's cosmic
I'm scanning all my radars
Well she said she's from a quasar
Forty thousand million light years away
It's a distant solar system
I tried to phone but they don't list 'em
So I asked her for a number all the same
She said, step in my transporter
So I can teleport ya
All around my heavenly body
This could be a close encounter
I should take care not to flounder
Sends me into hyperspace,
when I see her pretty face
