mushy mustard - black hole lyrics

[verse 1]
woke up in the morning, but something wasn’t right
from the view out my window you’d think that it was night
what happened to the light? why’s the sky pitch black?
if something’s wrong with all my clocks, then i want my money back
i’m so confused. what on earth is happening?
so i turned on the news, started watching cnn:
“looking at the sky, i’m sure we’re all stunned
to learn a black hole suddenly replaced the sun
our source of heat is gone, but you shouldn’t be troubled
we have all the heat we need in this co2 bubble
that black hole in sp+ce is far enough away
that we’ll all be okay, so continue with your day
we’re sending out two astronauts, lester and nate
to the center of our solar system to investigate
though the situation of these two men might seem bleak
with our latest tech the trip will only take them both a week”

[chorus]
black hole sun, black hole sun, the sky looks dead
black hole sun, black hole sun, the sky looks dead

[verse 2]
i’m lester, an astronaut working for nasa
the sun’s one mile wide but still the same mass
upon request of the president, i’m being sent
to check it out, up in sp+ce, investigative intent
who knows what’s up with it? maybe we’re stuck with it
tired of hearing these nerds all discussing it
want us to write down some research and publish it?
i say we hop right inside and try touching it
eighty+two hour trip
stuck with this other cadet named nate on this cramped ship
ten miles away from the black hole we’re circling
nate’s been taking scientific measurements and journaling
i put my jetpack on and find the exit
this b+tton opens the hatch; i press it
jump out, feet first, toward the black hole’s center
should have taken their advice: “do not enter”
[chorus]
black hole sun, black hole sun, this guy looks dead
black hole sun, black hole sun, the sky looks dead

[verse 3]
nate to mission control, we have a problem
lester jumped into the hole; i couldn’t stop him
i think he ran out of fuel nearing the middle
‘cause as he approached it, he slowed down a little
then a lot, now he’s plastered in time
an unbelievable sight; it’s almost sublime
anyway, i think it’s time that i return
there’s nothing we can do from what i can discern
i thought of ways to help, and i didn’t wanna face it
but the fact is i’m the only one returning on this sp+ceship
i turned it around and set course for our planet
driving back was hard; the ship had only one cadet to man it
after a week in sp+ce, i finally land
back to this darkness that we still don’t understand
back to my house to see my wife, i wanna hold her
but i didn’t recognize her, she was thirty years older
