Taking up Space

They told us there's no way to stop it

So they sent us up in rockets

No one ever dreams they'll leave their world behind

But it's been almost a year now

I'm starting to like it up here now

It's not so bad

With you by my side

If we could be happy on Earth

We can be happy out here in our satellite

Look on the bright side

There's a whole world to see

Outside your little window

Beneath your dangling feet

Wave hello to fellow travelers

You won't ever have to meet

Never felt so good to get some space

All your friends are here

We're all free to roam

Out here nobody's homeless

But nobody's home

Feels so good to be on the run

No more hanging our heads in yesterday

We'll stick together 'cause there's no other way

Just you and me and the milky way

Never had this much fun when we lived in L.A

Now we'll have such a good time taking up space

Goodbye to the country

Goodbye to the sea

Goodbye all those fucked up parts of our history

We're natural explorers it's the final frontier

So climb aboard a starship

Get your ass out here!

Now I know what you're thinking and it's probably true

That we're breaking our allegience to the pale little blue

But you can join us in the stars there's room for you too

Never been such a good time to get away, away

Just look around at all this real estate

Over billions of years see how it appreciates

We can canvas the stars with the whole human race

Never had such a good time taking up space

Never been such a good time for taking up space

Did you lock the garage

Did you water the lawn

Do you get that sick little feeling we've done something wrong

Just leave the old city and dirty dishes behind

And pretty soon you're gonna find

There's never

Been such a good time to be the human race

No gravity forcing us to pull our weight

We made it this far now let's just celebrate

Never been such a good time for taking up space

Never been such a good time for taking up space

The future is now now there's no time to waste

Never had such a good time

Taking up space

Never had such a good time
