Gettin' a message?
A message for me
I'm caught up in love, and I'm in ecstasy
What can I do now, when nothing's the same?
And all that I know, I wanna do it again
'Cause when we're together, I'm in ecstasy
I'm in ecstasy
I'm in ecstasy (yeah)
I'm in ecstasy (yeah)
Everybody go (yeah) (yeah) (yeah)
All you pretty things, get on board this mothership
I said, all you've got to be is ready for action, baby
Don't think I'm twisted, as a matter of fact
Welcome you now to the second act
Well I fought off robots, and a man in a suit
Wear out the soles of your monkey boots
Well tell me now
I can't get enough of the sunshine
I can't get enough of the moonlight
And all the colours that are coming on strong
Trying to hold on, trying to hold on
Can't get enough of the oceans
Can't get enough of the mantra
All we will ever feel is ecstasy
We're in ecstasy
We're in ecstasy (yeah)
We're in ecstasy (yeah)
Everybody go (yeah) (yeah) (yeah)
All you pretty things, get on board this mothership
I said, all you've got to be is ready for action, baby
Well tell me now I can't get enough of the sunshine
I can't get enough of the moonlight
Another colours that are coming on strong
Trying to hold on, trying to hold on
Can't get enough of the oceans
Can't get enough of the mantra
All we will ever feel is ecstasy
We're in ecstasy
We're in ecstasy
We're in ecstasy
Everybody go (yeah) (yeah) (yeah)
All you pretty things, get on board this mothership
All you've got to be is ready for action, baby
Ready for action, baby, ready for action, baby

I walked into my wedding reception to this song, PURE CLASS!! BEST BAND EVER!!
@wowomah6194
All the people downvoting must have never been to a Kasabian live show...this song would capture that energy perfectly
@Tougie24
Completely agree. I'd like every negative person to give a live version of the song a listen (the Glastonbury performance in particular).
@balazsbokori8735
the live versions of this song are so much better!
@jtfc7286
Not to mention this is one of the most Kasabian sounding songs ever, really didn't understand the hate for 48:13, had some classics on there
