phil ochs – spaceman lyrics
[first: the melody by itself, whistled]
way high, so high:
travelin’ fast and free.
sp-ceman, look down:
tell me what you see.
can you see the hunger there
strike without a sound?
can you see the food you burn
as you circle round?
way high, so high:
all the world will cheer.
sp-ceman, look down:
tell me what you hear.
can you hear a child cry,
body filled with pain?
deadly sores when cures are there–
how much fuel remains?
way high, so high:
sp-ceship made of steel.
sp-ceman, look down:
tell me what you feel.
can you feel the money gone
as you sail through sp-ce?
can you feel how many die
when you win the race?
way high, so high:
travelin’ fast and free.
sp-ceman, look down:
tell me what you see.
[end: first two lines of the melody again, whistled.]
