lyrics

apollo 69
rocket sulkin in the desert heat
blowin off steam
spillin its seed on the barren dunes
billowin pubic cloud below
groaning shaking scaffold sways
nelson column Isaac Hayes shaft Watts Towers
Houston? What does Hefner reckon?I am not readin' you...
pioneers and diggers
psychedelic vistors
dune buggies appear like ponies on a cliff
like a wagon train to the stars
coyotes wail - this coffee stinks
hey lets roll onto Mars
Houston? wheres this sea of tranquility?

I am not readin' you

yeah those reds are up to somethin'
you know they've got Rasputins brain wired up to one of their missiles?
yeah its a black one
kinda like the pack leader
Castro ! man he's hot for the main feature
dyin to shove his cigar into the yellow sugar cane

apollo 69
rocket sulkin in the desert heat
blowin off steam
spillin its seed on the barren dunes
dyin to fall onto another world
ride the wild milky way
