Me`shell Ndegã©ocello Space Queen Lyrics

Space Queen Lyrics

Well I was stranded, one million miles from earth

The safety device on my ship didn't work

Floating around half dead with no future

in the vacuum of space, getting weaker

Along came a ship with the girl that was in it

She looked like a cross between Bob Morenna(?) and Gidget

She said "Hey man, can I give you a ride?"

She opened her hatch, I went inside

The tears were rolling down my face

CHORUS:

Don't let me go, I can't take the fall

You might not know it, but you're my space queen

My rocket holds, one more soul

and in my search for intelligent life

nothing like you has ever crossed my eyes

She took me back to an earth that was horrid

Anger, and greed, and heartache and squalor

For protection we had each other

We built a home, and we recovered

And we loved one another with all of our hearts

but we took it for granted and grew apart

I yearned for the open expansive space

and rebuilt my ship and went away

and as I was leaving I felt like Luke Skywalker

leaving his home planet of Tattoui

"Usa la force-a, Luke" [no idea how to spell these last 2 line,
Starwars fanatics, please help me]

CHORUS:

Don't let me go,  I can't take the fall

You might not know it, but you're my space queen

My rocket holds, one more soul

and in my search for intelligent life

nothing like you has ever crossed my 

eyes

(crossed my eyes)

(crossed my eyes)

As I was leaving the earths atmosphere,

something was holding me back was it fear?

Maybe, it was the gravity belt

That's when I learned what it was that I felt

A giant rubber band was attached to me tightly

tied to my waist by the girl who had saved me

to make sure I'd return one day

but what she didn't realise

is that the rubber band stretched so far

that when it snapped me back to earth

I went through the earths crust,

through the mantle,

through the core

and out the other side,

breaking every bone in my body (aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...)

|

Don't let me go,  I can't take the fall

You might not know it, but you're my space queen

My rocket holds, one more soul

and in my search for intelligent life

nothing like you has ever crossed my eyes

(Don't let me go)  don't let me go now baby

(You might not know it) but you're my space queen

(My rocket holds) and you know, ahaaahaa  ooohoooohhoooo...  

(Don't let me go) aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah...

(You might not know it)

(My rocket holds) one more soul

And in my search for intelligent life

nothing like you has a, has ever crossed my eyes
