The sun is up, the mission begins
Suits and helmets on, now we look like twins
Are we going to succeed, I wonder
Then they shut the door and engines start to roar
Cameras rolling and we're ready to go!
Staring at a paper moon, thinking to myself
I wish we'd go home soon
Inside the eagle's shell we float in s***e
We know just what to do waiting for our cue
Cameras rolling and we're ready to go!
Spread the news from east to west
Greatest wonder of our time - we got it on film
Live on your TV - defying gravity
There's a pale blue planet beneath us
We're live on your TV - dictating history
Knowing that they'll never believe us
"Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle
and though thou set thy nest among the stars
thence will I bring you down"
