pulp musicals - the brick satellite, part 3 lyrics

Loading...

chorus:
where is the brick satellite
where is the brick satellite

narrator:
the flywheels worked, the ramp was cleared
the sagitta ripped through the atmosphere
fired like an arrow to the clouds, suddenly
catapulting out of this world
it felt like they were standing in a hurricane
margaret fainted underneath the strain
the radiance dimmed then died, once again
darkness surrounded the world
herschel:
the bricks are holding fast

rose:
samuel, we’re flying

herschel (counterpoint):
the structure is secure

samuel:
i’m just happy
that we did not explode

herschel (counterpoint):
we’re still ascending

samuel (counterpoint):
margaret, are you okay
i don’t know what to say

rose (counterpoint):
does this make us astronauts
i think i’m seeing spots

herschel (counterpoint):
we must shake gravity’s grip
or this will be a short trip
anna:
can someone please explain
why margaret glowed

narrator:
they flew into the void
for what felt like a year
the stratford twins believed that they were dreaming
because they wanted adventure
and now they were here
on a voyage filled with thrills and lots of screaming

narrator, chorus:
where is the brick satellite

anna:
i still can’t see anything!

narrator, chorus:
where is the brick satellite

samuel:
the windows on the bottom floor! follow me!

narrator:
his aim was true, even with no light
‘cause he knew every brick of the satellite
samuel could have done it with his eyes closed
so he led the way
down one level, then another they went
carrying margaret on their descent
herschel, anna, samuel, and rose
made it halfway
herschel:
stop! do you feel that?

samuel:
feel what?

narrator:
a weight was lifted

anna, rose:
we’re not ascending anymore

herschel:
exactly

narrator:
the storm had passed

samuel:
and we aren’t falling

herschel:
do you know what that means?

narrator:
a calm unlike anything they’d ever felt

herschel:
we’re in orbit

anna:
(beat) we made it

chorus:
satellite

narrator:
and n0body knew what to say

chorus:
satellite

narrator:
they felt more alive than ever before

chorus:
satellite

narrator:
there was light coming from the room below

chorus:
satellite

narrator:
they approached the window slowly
as if they were about to enter someplace holy
herschel felt a tear run down his face
what can prepare you to see the earth from sp+ce?
