[old time announcer, puts on a record] "Well gather round, children. Let me tell you story about "the good old days"... [bell tolls] (Just keep spinning) (Just keep spinning) (Just keep spinning) (Just keep spinning) [Verse 1] Morning rise, I wake alone. The dark subsides, But I'm already gone. The shower's cold, I'm growing old. It's not so bad I can't complain. It just seems like, most things, end the same. [Discordant piano and machine noises] [Chorus] I'm going to the, Space station. (Space Space station) I'm gonna be the, Next big one (next big one!) I change it to the, Next station (Next Next station) [sound of flipping through channels and abrupt music change] We're going to the, Space nation. (Space Space Nation) [Announcer] ("Don't forget to have some fun.") [Verse 2] [80's electronic dance] Sit still, Don't blink Enjoy the show. Just grab a drink. Make yourself at home. ("I'll take one thanks") It's hard to pretend, That I'm always there. Sometimes I'm lost, behind a stare. ("Anybody home?") Light a smoke, Lock in the scene. Don't look down, We're almost home. Just gotta finish this report, And analyze sales trends, ("We wanna own it all") [Chorus] [Jazzy, lounge band] Behind the wheel, flying through outer space. Why you gotta, drive so fast? It's not a race. Even tryin' my best, Sometimes I make mistakes. Don't forget the turn signal, When we go right passed Mars. Why does the speed of light, always have the right of way? (Space Space Space station) [Old time announcer] "Well what do you think, kids? Should we go for another ride?" [Kids whining and complaining] (Please, mister, we want to go home.) [Old time announcer] "That's great, c'mon, let's go!" [Verse 3] [Techno-Electronic] Pushing up a pencil, Like a Sisyphus stone. Gettin' home and makin' dinner, Before I miss my show. (Keep spinning. Keep spinning) I watch the same thing everyday: 90's sitcoms, old cartoons, and Jurassic Park. I play them back to back, In my comfy chair, On repeat. [Electronic fizzling] Sometimes I blast music from the Twilight zone, (twilight zone!) I wear my alien pajamas, And leave my space helmet on [Dance break down] [Bridge] [sci-fi noises] (Space- invaders, come back later) (Space- invaders, come back later) (Space- invaders, come back later) (Space- invaders, come back later) [Announcer] ("Look, kids. The fearless space explorer has come upon an extra terrestrial!") ([Kids complain] "Ewwww!") ([Announcer] "Now kids, that's no way to treat someone different than you") [Alien starts shooting laser beams] [*Laser noises and explosions*] ([Kids scream] "Ahhh!") Locked and loaded, Running shipments, across the milky way. [Chorus] Behind the wheel, flying through outside space. we take a shortcut, Through the time-wave. [*Chimes, bells, whistles*] Workin' hard, To earn my pay, Catchin' starlight ain't easy, On a minimum wage. (Space Space Space nation) I float on. Spinning in zero gravity I'm makin' time, Cuttin' lines, Starring in, my own, Documentary. I'm ridin' fast, Just to look cool, And make it, All look easy. [Old time announcer] "So what did we learn today? That's right! Never give up on your dreams!" ([Kids cheer unenthusiastically] "Yeah...") [Chorus] Just say that, You won't miss me. I'll be gone, Makin' hist'ry. ("Just smile and wave, kids, smile and wave.") Who knows? tomorrow, I might be gettin' a raise [Bridge] I touch ground, The cheer of the crowd. I made it home, From a dangerous place. And I brought pizza too. (Oh! Oh!) (Oh! Oh!) (Oh! Oh!) (Oh! Oh!) ([villain voice, robotic, campy] "I'll get you next time, Space Man") [break it down] ------ [Retro cartoon outro] ([kids cheering] “Again! Again!”) ([announcer sighs] “Kids, I’m tired.”)
