Gaze Nine Lives To Rigel Five
Side by side slide by space and time
Yeah the Neil Armstrong telecasts of Nineteen Sixty-Nine
Proportion distortion I saw in those shoes
And I learned a kind of ego that I doubt I'll ever lose
It's nine lives to Rigel Five
Nine lives to Rigel Five
And I'm waiting nine lives to Rigel Five
With nothing to say when I arrive
Joan Jones proposed that we leave our homes
Like runaway gnomes in the twilight zone
He said, baby, when you're grown it all means more
I said, let's get out the twister game and get down on all fours
Nine lives to Rigel Five
Nine lives to Rigel Five
And I'm waiting nine lives to Rigel Five
With nothing to say when I arrive
Well I have a problem that physics won't resolve
A color that acid won't dissolve
A place that's just too far, I think, for us to go
Now is it wise to have a hope so strong
For real-time answers to real-world wrongs
Oh Susanna if you've got to cry for me
Send me back to Alabama with a banjo on my knee
Nine lives to Rigel Five
Nine lives to Rigel Five
And I'm waiting nine lives to Rigel Five
With nothing to say, goodbye
