Astronauts

The astronauts are coming to town and it’ll be all right

They’re gonna wear their helmets this time around so they can breathe just fine

The astronauts are coming to town and it’ll be all right

The rioters are gathering they’re filling the fields

Groups are held back by fences and police shields

We don’t want you here in our city they say

But they’re coming anyway

 

The astronauts are coming to town, and it’ll be alright

It’ll be alright

 

With your inch thick suits to protect you from the elements

The atmosphere to distance you from us

We don’t want you here in our city they say

But they’re coming anyway

 

The astronauts are coming to town, and it’ll be alright

It’ll be alright

 

They bring their smiles and their beauty queen waves from the wrist

They don’t notice the crowds held back by rubber bullets

They bring their smiles and their beauty queen waves from the wrist

They don’t notice the crowds held back by tear gas and fists

Rubber bullets rubber bullets rubber bullets tear gas and fists

Rubber bullets rubber bullets rubber bullets tear gas and fists
