lyrics

How much money will it take me to get to the moon?
No pain
No gain
(So true)
Cause the man on TV told me:
Health is wealth
And space is cool (literally)
Oh my God I’m delirious
Seems like the world is ending
Oh my God, do you think it’s serious?
I can’t tell if I’m pretending

You’ll regret the bed you’ve made
In your brain
In your veins
I'd break sweat in all that fame
All that blame
It's such a shame
The days go by
I think it’s time for a change
And I watch the sky
It’s a little bit Strange

Scream if you wanna go faster! Aaaaah!
Smile! Put the pedal to the floor
Are you ready for the time of your life
Cause dyings far too slow (slow!)
Dream big if you got the cash for it
Gosh darn it, I’m still sitting here waiting on the end of the world
But living means watching it burn
This is a revelation

Bzzt We're bringing it back round
Ready for touchdown
Let’s all welcome the heroes
Back to ground 0
‘I’d trade it all for a pic with Jeff Bezos’
I thought that we could hang out
But turns out he don’t hang around (what?)
When you come down to earth, you best be down to earth
I know my worth, say it out loud

You better pace yourself
You better brace yourself
You better go out with a bang or erase yourself
The silver from all of my clouds line your pockets
choking on smoke from your rocket

Scream if you wanna go faster! Aaaaah!
Smile! Put the pedal to the floor
Are you ready for the time of your life
Cause dyings far too slow (slow!)
Dream big if you got the cash for it
Gosh darn it, I’m still sitting here waiting on the end of the world
But living means watching it burn
This is a revelation

One small step for man...
[Can you guys believe this?]
...One giant leap [wow!] for mankind

Boys boys boys (quit it)
Big money won't buy my silence
But your brand new toys are making me jealous
This may contain violence, Ouch!
Pain is the name of the game
So hit me like I'm paying for it
'Love it or your money back'
Is all you've got to say for it?

I'm like pfft, relax
Accidents happen
Fire in the cockpit
Time to abandon ship
We've been hit!
Yeah, no shit detective,
Violate the Amazon Prime Directive

Now scream if you wanna go faster! Aaaaah!
Smile! Put the pedal to the floor
Are you ready for the time of your life
Cause dyings far too slow (slow!)
Dream big if you got the cash for it
Gosh darn it, I’m still sitting here waiting on the end of the world
But living means watching it burn
This is a revelation
