Spaceman Spaceman
Oh-oh-oh

Take me to an alien place
Where we can create a new race
I think the sex will be fun
We'll do it in outer space
Oh-oh-oh

I don't wanna belong
I'll be here if they want
I wanna follow you there
A futuristic love affair
Oh-oh-oh

So beam me up Scotty
And you know I'll be your best friend
Take me to Uranus 'cause I wanna be your spaceman
Oh-oh-oh

The world out here is dying
So I'm looking for a new place
Take me to Uranus <#cause I wanna be your spaceman
Oh-oh-oh

Imagine what I could wear
The fashion, shoes, and the hair
I'm so 3008, I'm ready to play
Oh-oh-oh

Extra-Terrestrial life
There's no man and no wife
I wanna follow you there
Futuristic love affair
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

So beam me up Scotty
And you know I'll be your best friend
Take me to Uranus 'cause I wanna be your spaceman
Oh-oh-oh

The world out here is dying
So I'm looking for a new place
Take me to Uranus 'cause I wanna be your spaceman
Oh-oh-oh

This is my alien love song, my alien love song
Wow oh
This is my alien love song, my alien love song
Wow oh
This is my alien love song, my alien love song
Wow oh
This is my alien love song, my alien love song
Wow oh

My alien love song wow oh
So beam me up Scotty
And you know I'll be your best friend
Take me to Uranus 'cause I wanna be your spaceman
Oh-oh-oh

The world out here is dying
So I'm looking for a new land




Take me to Uranus 'cause I wanna be your spaceman
Oh-oh-Oh

Overall Meaning

The song "Spaceman" by Brandon Hilton is about an individual who is tired of the current state of the world and wants to escape to a new and better place with their lover. They envision themselves as a "spaceman" traveling to a distant planet, possibly Uranus, where they can start a new life and create a new race with their partner. The lyrics depict the idea of a "futuristic love affair" free from the constraints of traditional societal norms. The singer expresses their desire to be taken away from Earth by singing "beam me up Scotty" and talks about the fun they would have during sex in outer space.


The song also has elements of escapism as the singer imagines themselves wearing unique and futuristic clothing and playing in a world that is different from their own. They seem to be unsatisfied with the current state of their environment and seek refuge in another world. The song contains alien references and phrases like "extra-terrestrial life" and "spaceman", which further adds to the theme of interdimensional love.
