Lyrics
Asylum Satellite #1
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It said in the paper that 90% of the universe went missing this morning
Tonight I lost 90% of what was left
They send us up here to get us out of the way
We worry, and they don't like what we say
Seems obvious to us what's right and what is wrong
But it seems that our opinions don't belong
La la la
So we're all up here together on Asylum Satellite 1
We're looking down together from Asylum Satellite 1
I can remember, back in '22
They changed the law - came knocking on the door
In that same moment, the broadband seemed to go
Phones all dead. Gone dizzy in the head
La la la
Next thing y'know
They put us on a transport to the stars
So we're orbitting the earth together
And, right now, slightly to the left of Mars
It's all so clear
We can see the madness perfectly from here
