Recent Changes
Super700 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't be frightened it's a beautiful night
We'll have a beautiful sight from up there in the sky
Let's take a ride on a satellite
Let's take a ride on a satellite

Let's put ourselves in a digital receiver
Reverse the polarity and become a believer
Let's take a ride on a satellite
Let's take a ride on a satellite

Through tons of cold air we make our way through the ether
Pray a bit for good luck and pray a bit for good weather
In the dead of night we step bit by bit
At the speed of light I bet we get there
In less than a second it's a beautiful night
Let's take a ride on a satellite
Let's take a ride on a satellite

From a common point of view these are just recent changes
It's just recent from a common point of view
But if you'd have a closer look
You could see how it changed and how
It slowly crept along and how it grew up

I feel mixed 'cause it's a bit of a strange night
I'm too frightened to look but I can't close my eyes
I hope we make it to the satellite
I hope we make it to the satellite
The stars look angry and the meteor's mad
For some reason the sun averts and the earth looks so sad
I hope we make it to the satellite
I hope we make it to the satellite




Billions of black holes they eye us so greedily
And we suddenly feel like the whores of technology
