On solid fuel and wires
 Turn the key and the light the fires.
 We’re leaving Earth today
 The rockets burning bright
 We’ll soon be out of sight
 And orbiting in space
 Pushed back in my seat
 Look out my window
 There goes home

That ball of shiny blue houses everybody anybody ever knew

So sing your song I’m listening out where stars are glistening
 I can hear your voices bouncing off the moon
 If you could see our Nation from the international space station
 You’d know why I want to get back soon (get back soon)

Eighteen thousand miles an hour
 Fueled by science and solar power
 The oceans racing past
 At half a thousand tons
 Ninety minutes Moon to Sun
 bullet can’t go half this fast

Floating from my seat
 Look out my window
 There goes Home (There goes home)
 That brilliant ball of blue
 Is where I’m from, and also where I’m going to 

So sing your song I’m listening out where stars are glistening
 I can hear your voices bouncing off the moon
 If you could see our Nation from the international space station
 You’d know why I want to get back soon (get back soon)

All back and white just fades to grey
 Where the sunrises sixteen times a day
 You can’t make out borders from up here
 Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere (atmosphere)

Pushed back in the seat
 Look out my window
 [bad word] home (ho-ho-home)
 What once was fueled by fear
 Now has fifteen Nation orbiting together here.

So sing your song I’m listening out where stars are glistening
 I can hear your voices bouncing off the moon
 If you could see our Nation from the international space station
 You’d know why I want to get back soon (get back soon)

You’d know why I want to get back soon (getting back to you)
 You’d know why I want to get back soon (getting back to you)
 You’d know why I want to get back soon (getting back to you)
 You’d know why I want to get back soon
