lyrics

Well I don't think
We could ask directions here
And I'll be the first to admit that I don't know where we are
Mission control
Asked us for a status report
At least two hours ago, who knows it might be more

We found ourselves in love in outer space
Days and nights were fine once we finally shed our gravity

What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere
What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere

First time, airlock
The sun just hits so nice
Get out of your space suit and let's find ourselves a drink
She left a note
In my helmet on the hatch
I open my Valentine, she's counting Saturn's rings

Dust off the stardust from the mantle
We can spend the day exploring Uranus

What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere
What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere

Lunar Explorer, This is mission control
All systems are go. It's been quite the patrol
The coms are all working. So's the vocal enhancer
And we've called 16 times, so um-Why won't you answer
Life support - Check. Looks like you're thriving
But look guys - You gotta know the time's arriving
To pack up your moon rocks. Get out of this place
You gotta leave soon or you'll be trapped up in space

What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere
What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere

Yes, we're lost
And we'll probably die up here
Plenty doing the same thing back home, without the view
Houston is pissed
We're mixing Tangaritas
I carved our names into the cargo bay door

I'll hang the space suits on the clothes line
You look so beautiful by the light of Uranus

What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere
What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere

Joke's over people. Come on time to go
I know you're okay, but your air's running low
Now that medical sensors are all activated
It looks like your heart rates are quite elevated
Water's level's good, but it won't last forever
But you know that. That's why you're showering together
If you turn around now, you don't have to be hurried
But It's time to come home guys. Your spouses are worried

What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere
What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere

What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere
What if we don't say nothing
Float around up in this atmosphere
