《Rocket Science》歌词

[00:00:09] it's fifty years since sputnik, when the russians shocked the world

[00:00:13] with an orb and two antennae earth would never be the same

[00:00:19] fueling our worst fears that we'd be vulnerable and weak

[00:00:23] if we did not respond in kind, we'd lose the game

[00:00:28] so we got our act together, and explorer one went flying

[00:00:32] but not before the russians sent a dog up into space

[00:00:37] if i said i knew why they thought dogs should fly, i would be lying

[00:00:42] they were caught up in some kind of human race

[00:00:47] a race to the furthest star

[00:00:52] a race to the galaxies above

[00:00:56] if a little bit of fear can go so far

[00:01:01] imagine what a world could do with love

[00:01:06] ......

[00:01:14] gagarin took a spin around the globe in 61 and

[00:01:18] he was followed ten months later by an astronaut named glenn

[00:01:23] alexei took a spacewalk, captain kirk, he took our tv

[00:01:27] and i've never been the same since then

[00:01:32] a race to the furthest star

[00:01:38] a race to the galaxies above

[00:01:42] if a little bit of dreaming goes so far

[00:01:48] imagine what a world could do with love

[00:01:51] ......

[00:01:59] imagine human footprints on a distant lunar plane

[00:02:04] imagine floating science labs where gravity is gone

[00:02:09] imagine the potential that our species could contain

[00:02:14] if we were drawn to love again

[00:02:19] i heard a scientist declare the world as we know it

[00:02:23] is destined to be swallowed up in some gigantic hole

[00:02:28] and nothing that you do on earth will outlast or survive this

[00:02:33] is there any point in trying to take control?

[00:02:37] just another baby boomer, writing poems

[00:02:42] putting flowers into rifles, hugging trees and singing songs

[00:02:47] and the questions in the air aren't rocket science

[00:02:52] what's the point and where on earth do we belong?

[00:02:57] in our race to the furthest star

[00:03:02] a race to the galaxies above

[00:03:07] if a little bit of vision goes so so far

[00:03:12] imagine what a world could do with love
