"Spaceman" lyrics
"Spaceman"
Way high, so high
Travelin' fast and free
Spaceman, look down
Tell me what you see
Can you see the hunger there
Strike without a sound?
Can you see the food you burn
As you circle round?
Way high, so high
All the world will cheer
Spaceman, look down
Tell me what you hear
Can you hear a child cry
Body filled with pain?
Deadly sores when cures are there
How much fuel remains?
Way high, so high
Spaceship made of steel
Spaceman, look down
Tell me what you feel
Can you feel the money gone
As you sail through space?
Can you feel how many die
When you win the race?
Way high, so high
Travelin' fast and free
Spaceman, look down
Tell me what you see

Trying to sleep at night
All this old city...
Karen Dalton - "Green Rocky Road" When I go to Baltimore
Need no carpet on my floor
Get your coat and follow me
I know a man in Galilee
Green, green rocky road
Promenade in green
Tell me who you love

Tell me who...
Warren Zevon - "Empty Hearted Town" Ain't life strange? Ain't it funny?
Nothing matters much but love and money
Things don't work out the way you reckoned
Money comes first, and the love comes second
Cigarettes make the sun come up...
