Cowboys and Spacemen
Lyrics
A cowboy sat at McDonald's
While lights flashed from the street
There was a public announcement 'bout a raging disaster
From a mouth feeding on fear
Where do we go
Where do we go
Your world is gone, said a Chinese doll
With prosthetic arms in her sleeves
If I can get them to sign me
Sell the words that define me
Wipe my slate clean in return
Mr. Billionaire explores his new frontier
But he ain't inviting you yet
Is there life on Mars
Yes, there's life on Mars
Bet there's even life on this earth
So where do we go
Where do we go
Oh, how do we know
Which way to go
Put on your ragged hat
Wield a laser gun
Get your science-fiction in check
Cause in a spacemen time
You'd better stay alive
Fore the oceans rise with the dead
Freedom is another word
Look who's getting all control
Post-modern traders of slaves
I tried to earn my way
And that's the price I'll pay
Now that this brave new world is on our tail
Where do we go
Where do we go
Oh, how do we know
Which way we go
Follow lines of a trail uncharted
There's a forest left all alone
Follow screams where the bullets fly
All the children left all alone
Follow God on a mountaintop
And gravitate towards the void
Follow the path with no map
All over the world
(You will never be alone)
Wherever you roam
(You will never be alone)
I'll carry this load
(Just so you don't have to)
Meet me on the road
