caius hubris – slingshot lyrics

slingshot lyrics
[intro] (bill nye)
“what we wanna do… is change the world.”

[chorus] (caius hubris)
when i look back at this place
when i’m in outer sp+ce;
i remember finer times
in these lines
the fact about time is +
it’s limited…
i’ve got this thing to do for everyone

[verse] (caius hubris)
yes, now that i got your attention worldwide
you gotta understand i couldn’t land it if i tried
my little planet looks so peaceful from the outside
it’s hard to see all the wars and the genocide
i can’t abide with that so here’s the vision
steal a ship and go to mars to end all this division
hook up a shuttle with the iss and leave
interplanetary piracy’s the only path that i see
a simple orbit is so easy to keep
but all this going round in circles ain’t changing a d+mn thing
civilization’s been complacent in this generation
man i’m losing patience, so i choose a different destination
i’m sick of waiting for a perfect plan
i’m sick of waiting just to hand the glory over to another man
i finished the calculations up this afternoon
to go to mars i gotta slingshot around the moon
[chorus] (caius hubris)
when i look back at this place
when i’m in outer sp+ce;
i remember finer times
in these lines
the fact about time is +
it’s limited…
i’ve got this thing to do for everyone

[bridge] (caius hubris & bill nye)
don’t worry my friends, it’s ok…
i can accept a little tragedy
there’s no safety net i’ll find
worth one small step for mankind
“the key to the future is not to do less
it’s to do more with less
and that, to me, is the future of sp+ce exploration
now my friends, i am all for everybody flying around in sp+ce +
i want to fly in sp+ce +
yes; but mars…
mars is a ‘whole nother thing.’”

[verse] (caius hubris)
it’s so simple if you think it through:
it’s not the place that you’re from that’s defining you
we view the world as if we’re different nationalities
blinded to the fact that we share the same humanity
‘you can’t take a sp+ce station to the promised land.’
ehh.. you may be right but i’ll be d+mned if i don’t take the chance
to move man from the earth to the universe…
or die in sp+ce, whatever comes first
[chorus] (caius hubris)
when i look back at this place
when i’m in outer sp+ce;
i remember finer times
in these lines
the fact about time is +
it’s limited…
i’ve got this thing to do for everyone

[outro] (caius hubris)
don’t worry my friends, it’s ok…
i can accept a little tragedy
there’s no safety net i’ll find
worth one small step for mankind
