[Verse 1]

Turn me around

Collision course with the sun

Far above the ground

Halfway to oblivion

[Chorus]

In the stratosphere

There's nowhere to go from here

In the stratosphere

I'll be back home another year

[Verse 2]

High as the moon

Earth below to comfort me

Needle to the spoon

Strike a match and let it breathe

[Chorus]

In the stratosphere

There's nowhere to go from here

In the stratosphere

Somewhere I could disappear

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

In the stratosphere

There's nowhere to go from here

In the stratosphere

Be back home another year
