Thinking Voyager 2 Type Things - Bob Geldof[00:00:00]
Written by:Bob Geldof/Pete Briquette[00:00:02]
This is the moment that we come alive[00:01:54]
I'm handing out the breath and the kiss[00:01:57]
I'm electric with the snap and the crackle of creation[00:02:16]
I'm mixing up the mud with the spit[00:02:19]
So rise up Brendan Behan and like a drunken Lazarus[00:02:37]
Let's traipse the high bronze of the evening sky[00:02:41]
Like crack crazed kings[00:02:44]
Voyager 2 where are you now[00:03:06]
Looking back at home and weeping[00:03:08]
Cold and alone in the dark void[00:03:10]
Winding down and bleeping[00:03:12]
Ever dimmer ever thinner[00:03:14]
Sail on sail on sail on[00:03:20]
Feebly cheeping in the solar winds[00:03:23]
On past the howling storms[00:03:26]
Through electric orange skies[00:03:29]
And blinding methane rain[00:03:31]
I'll turn you up[00:03:32]
Never bring me down to earth again[00:03:49]
Let me blaze a trail of glory across the sky[00:03:51]
Let me traipse across its golden high[00:03:54]
Let me marvel in wonder and unfettered gaze[00:04:10]
At the bigness and implausibility of being[00:04:13]
Yes stretch out your hands into infinity you human things[00:04:31]
Past blind moons and ice cream worlds[00:04:35]
You hurl your metal ball of dull intelligence[00:04:38]
And show us all our fragile grip[00:04:41]
As we too track with you[00:04:53]
Slower but no less insistent[00:04:55]
Like the only fertile seed[00:04:58]
In the barren vault of being[00:05:00]
Sail on sail on sail on[00:05:15]
Hurtling towards the waiting tomb of empty worlds[00:05:19]
Waiting for the final primary come of life[00:05:23]
I'll turn you up[00:05:28]
And I'm thinking big things[00:05:41]
I'm thinking about mortality[00:05:43]
I'm thinking it's a cheap price that we pay for existence[00:05:46]
This is the moment that we come alive[00:05:50]
No we're in Paris[00:05:57]
In the ball gowns[00:05:58]
In the high heels[00:06:00]
In the snow[00:06:01]
And we're spinning round Versailles in a Volkswagen beetle[00:06:02]
That we'd hired for the day[00:06:04]
At the cheap rate[00:06:06]
The room without the shower was cold again[00:06:12]
Are we already middle aged she said[00:06:14]
And I said I feel nothing[00:06:16]
I feel like a jelly fish[00:06:18]
Maybe it's the Portuguese men o pause she joked[00:06:19]
And she laughed her brittle head[00:06:22]
And we went back to bed[00:06:23]
And this is the moment that we come alive[00:06:26]
This is the breath and this is the kiss[00:06:29]
