Lyrics
IÂ?m calling to you from satellite earth
ItÂ?s been many long years since the time of my birth
And from my point of view staring into the blue
IÂ?m really not sure where weÂ?re going
This spaceship of ours is out of control
Spinning round and round, someone please get a hold
And from my point of view in my message to you
IÂ?m not sure we know where weÂ?re going
From out in space this looks the place to be
Consider the choices
But donÂ?t you see, are you listening to me?
ThereÂ?s nothing but the sound of angry voices
IÂ?m calling to you from satellite earth
ItÂ?s been millions of years since the time of its birth
And from my point of view as I cry out to you
IÂ?m really not sure where weÂ?re going
IÂ?m calling to youÂ?Â?Â?
