Thomas Dolby - She Blinded Me With Science



Some lyrics to the song (not mine!)

It's poetry in motion
She turned her tender eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
She blinded me with science!
And failed me in biology
When I'm dancing close to her
Blinding me with science - science!
I can smell the chemicals
Science!
Science!
Mmm - but it's poetry in motion
and when she turned her eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
She blinded me with science!
And failed me in geometry
When she's dancing next to me
Blinding me with science - science!
Science!"
I can hear machinery
'Blinding me with science - science!
Science!"
It's poetry in motion
and now she's making love to me
The spheres are in commotion
The elements in harmony
She blinded me with science
She blinded me with science!
And hit me with technology
'Good heavens Miss Sakamoto - you're beautiful!
I don't believe it!
There she goes again!
She's tidied up and I can't find anything!
all my tubes and wires
And careful notes
And antiquated notions
but - it's poetry in motion
And when she turned her tender eyes to me
As deep as any ocean
As sweet as any harmony
Mmm - but she blinded me with science
She blinded me with science!
And failed me in geometry
She blinded me - with science!

Blur - Far Out (Beagle 2 version)



Some lyrics to the song (not mine!)

Phoebe, Io, Elara, Leda, Callisto, Sinope, 1980 S27, Janus, Dione, Portia - so many moons!
Quiet in the sky at night
Hot in the Milky Way
Outside in...

10 billion light years wide
And time on either side
And inside, outside, inside... (27, 10)
Far out, far out

Vega, Capella, Hader, Rigel and Barnard's Star (Sun, sun!)
Antares, Aldebaran, Altair, Wolf 359, Betelgeuse (Sun, sun!)

Sun, sun, sun!
Quiet in the sky at night
Hot in the Milky Way
Outside in...

10 billion light years wide
And time on either side
And I got inside, outside, inside... (27, 10)
Far out, far out

Always, always out there
Always, always, always out there
Always

I spy in the night sky, don't I?
I spy in the night sky, don't I?
I spy in the night sky, don't I?
I spy in the night sky, don't I?

Sun, sun, sun!
Quiet in the sky at night
Quick in the Milky Way
Outside in...

10 billion light years wide
And time on either side
And inside, outside, inside... (27, 10)
Far out, far out

10 billion light years wide
And time on either side
And inside, outside, inside... (27, 10)
Far out
