Lyrics for Apogee by Tull Jethro:
| | | Artist: | Tull Jethro |

is it too late to bale out of here?
Well, there has
to be some better way
to turn back the night,
spin on to yesterday.
The old
man and his crew--
after all these years,
it's Apogee.
Pilot training and
remorse--
spirit friends fly too,
at Apogee.
Apogee-- solar bright
Apogee--
through the night
Apogee-- overground
Don't think I'll be coming down.
Screened
for a stable mate
with nerves of ice we flew,
at Apogee.
No creativity
allowed
to pass throgh stainless veins of steel,
at Apogee.
Apogee-- put the kettle
on
Tight-lipped-- soldier on
High point-- communicate
Don't forget to
urinate.
So glad they put this window in.
How to explain, how to begin?
See!
Tennyson and Wordsworth there
waiting for me in the cold, thin air.
Beware a host
of unearthly daffodils
drifting golden, turned up loud.
Tell the boys back
home,
I'm gonna get some.
The Wrong Stuff's loose in here--
I'm climbing up
the walls,
at Apogee.
So hoist the skull and bones--
death and glory's
free,
at Apogee.
A stranger wind, a solar breeze--
I'm walking out upon the
starry seas.
See pyramids, see standing stones--
pink cotton undies and blue
telephones.
Goodbye, cruel world that was my home--
there's cleaner space out here
to roam.
Put my feet up on the moons of mars--
sit back, relax and count the stars | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
