Speed Comet

Story Behind The Song

Jupiter expands and Mercury goes fast --a little bit of astrology thrown into the mix. Venus love and openess, Saturn: hard lessons and restrictions. Where does a person who wants to proceed with care, evolve not de-volve, fit in?

Song Description

It seems like I am the only one that thinks we should slow down and act with more care. Maybe I am an alien. Like I am the child of venus and love but also of hard-learned lessons and everyone else acts like there is nothing to worry about. Jupiter expands and Mercury goes fast --a little bit of astrology thrown into the mix.

Lyrics

Speed Comet -- Copyright Cynthia Post, gOA Music, BMI

My father is Saturn. My mother is Venus.
I feel like an alien cause everybody acts like they?re from Jupiter
Not me, not me

They?re running round like Mercury
They?re cutting down my mother?s trees
Spilling oil and starting fires
Bigger, bigger, higher, higher

Go like that, go like that, go
Don?t look back, don?t look back, no
Go like that, go like that, go
Speed comet burning out

Living in a conflict zone, choose a side or stand alone
Stand alone and watch them dying. Live to see both sides crying.
On and on it goes, on and on

See them in the raging horde
See them clashing sword to sword
Anger splashed like venom spitting
Mars is present, unrelenting

Go like that, go like that, go
Don?t look back, don?t look back, no
Go like that, go like that, go
Speed comet burning out

Living under Saturn?s thumb there was no expanding
See the damage being done and no path returning
Resist. I learned to resist, resist

Running round like Mercury
Cutting down my mother?s trees
Shooting guns and starting fires
Bigger, bigger, higher, higher

Go like that, go like that, go
Don?t look back, don?t look back, no
Go like that, go like that, go
Speed comet burning out
