[Part 1: Silver Moon]

I park the car

"Silver Moon" where you live

Traveling for miles

Just to find no-one's in

Houstonette I rode a rocket

Wrote a song and then forgot it

So Beam me up

My head has a scratch

And I'm stuck on repeat

There's holes in my chest

But I've learnt not to bleed

Satellite your

Wax and wane might

Make me up tight

But I'm alive

So beam me up!

I wanted to drive

I wanted to know

And I wanted to lie

To take my life alone

I wanted to know

I want it tonight

And I wanted it it all

To live my life alone

Beam me up!


[Part 2: Electric Light]

We were never never close

Just close enough to make things move

An awful groove in your head

Stuck stuck face the fact that the melody is dead

I'm a record so flip me over

Under everyone's nose

I would know the notes that you know that you would never know

The ones that make you groan and shiver and tick

Oh Houstonette I'll buy you that and this and lots of boots

I'm such a fool

Not enough for a heart that's as big as the moon

True - lie with a loon, only in summer time

I've learnt all my lessons from you

High, up there in the sky, be my electric light

And guide me for I smell a ruse

You would play me and I'd always lose

But you'd be there when my head was blue

Now the earth is too small for us two


[Part 3: Alive]

Now I am alive just inside - just inside

Drowned the old famous five, dead and dry in the waves

In a light cold and white give me life - more than this

English ice, english eyes

Watch my mind - I am ill

Houstonette I rode a rocket

Wrote a song and then forgot it

So beam me up!


[Part 4: Gold]

You've an honest soul

And your heart is gold

There's a part here for me

It's designed and discreet

You've an honest soul

And your heart is gold

There's a part here for me

Oh there's a part here for me

There's a part here for me

There's a part here for me

So beam me up!


[Part 5: Halfway (Closed)]

Help me find the moon

And bring it halfway down

So I can see it shine
