Hello Earth
"Hello Earth"
"Columbia now nine times the speed of sound.""Roger that, Dan, I've got a solid TACANlocked on, uh, TACAN twenty-three.""The, uh, tracking data, map data and pre-plannedtrajectory are all one line on the block""Roger your block decoded recorded"
Hello, Earth.Hello, Earth.With just one hand held up highI can blot you out,Out of sight.
Peek-a-boo,Peek-a-boo, little Earth.With just my heart and my mindI can be driving,Driving home,And you asleepOn the seat.
I get out of my car,Step into the nightAnd look up at the sky.And there's something bright,Traveling fast.Look at it go!Look at it go!
("Listen!")
Watching stormsStart to formOver America.Can't do anything.Just watch them swingWith the windOut to sea.
All you sailors,("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")All life-savers,("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")All you cruisers,("Get out of the waves! Get out of the water!")All you fishermen,Head for home.
Go to sleep, little Earth.I was there at the birth,Out of the cloudburst,The head of the tempest.Murderer!Murder of calm.Why did I go?Why did I go?
"Tiefer, tiefer.Irgendwo in der TiefeGibt es ein licht."
Go to sleep little Earth.
