Mr. Spaceman Lyrics

Your ascension request has been denied

You will not be permitted to walk with us among the stars

Can you hear the rumble

The bright light in the sky

Men in suits and pretty girls

Please tell us how to die

Flying out in spaceships

Like some kind of alien breed

They came from high above us

Crying out please worship me

Lifeless eyes, a plastic face

Yet somehow they're in charge of everything

We sent a letter to the spaceman, to the spaceman

But he said no words to us at all

High up above us there's a spaceman, there's a spaceman

But maybe he doesn't wanna talk

They built us up a castle

They made it out of glass

If you give them your time and money

They'll give you second class

Lecturing the public

The ivory tower glare

Godless, mindless people yet they offer thoughts and prayers

That's right

There ain't nothing in the way

When your crimes are just a bill to pay

We sent a letter to the spaceman, to the spaceman

But he said no words to us at all

High up above us there's a spaceman, there's a spaceman

But maybe he doesn't wanna talk

At the end of the world

Men in suits and pretty girls

Take your towns and grind them up

Then they leave you in the dust

We sent a letter to the spaceman, to the spaceman

But he said no words to us at all

High up above us there's a spaceman, there's a spaceman

But maybe he doesn't wanna talk
