[funknasty bass intro]
Hello you lovely yellow beast
(Hello you lovely yellow beast)
I breathe your excrement through my skin
(Ooh-wah)
If you could travel West to East
(If you could travel West to East)
I would be retrograde in my spin
Oh-whoa – we’re spinning
Eight minutes pass from when you speak
(Eight minutes pass from when you speak)
Until your words fall lightly on my ears
(Your words fall lightly on my ears)
But I have faith some day we’ll meet face to face
(Ooh-wah)
Even if it takes five billion years
(Even if it takes five billion years)
Oh-whoa –we’re spinning
But your gravity is winning
Gravity has got me bound to you
I try to run away – but the universe doesn’t want me to
Gravity has got me bound to you
I try to run away – but the universe doesn’t want me to
Hello you ghostly pale balloon
(Hello you ghostly pale balloon)
All of the waters follow your gaze
(Ooh-wah)
You’re swinging ‘round me in my arms, oh
(You’re spinning ‘round me in my arms)
And we have been like this for always
Oh-whoa – we’re spinning
You stole the clothes right off my back
(You stole the clothes right off my back)
And yet you show me only half your face
(you show me only half your face)
Well you can use my motion if you choose
(Ooh-wah)
But it’s only pushing you away
(It’s only pushing you away)
Oh-whoa – we’re spinning
Just like we were in the beginning
Gravity has got me bound to you
I try to run away – but the universe doesn’t want me to
Gravity has got me bound to you
I try to run away – but the universe doesn’t want me to
Oh no!
