Music Monday preparation for May 6th: 

I.S.S. (Is Somebody Singing)

Music by Ed Robertson
Lyrics by Chris Hadfield and Ed Robertson
Used with Permission

On solid fuel and wires


Turn the key and light the fires


We’re leaving Earth today


This rocket’s burning bright


We’ll soon be out of sight


And orbiting in space

Prechorus 1


Pushed back in my seat


Look out my window


There goes home


That ball of shiny blue


Houses everybody anybody ever knew

Chorus


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

Bridge


All black and white just fades to grey


Where the sun rises sixteen times a day


You can’t make out borders from up here


Just a spinning ball within a tiny atmosphere

Eighteen thousand miles an hour


Fuelled by science and solar power


The oceans racing past
At half a thousand tons


Ninety minutes Moon to Sun


A bullet can’t go half this fast

Pre-chorus 2


Floating from my seat


Look out my window 


There goes Home


That brilliant ball of blue


Is where I’m from, and also where I’m going to

Pre-chorus 3


Pushed back in my seat


Look out my window


Here comes home


What once was fuelled by fear


Now has fifteen Nations orbiting together here

Reminder:
SCIENCE: Flight Wiki (Structures & Mechanisms) and begin to work on the perspective you and your group have decided to focus on.  Begin to build ideas for your realistic fiction graphic narrative and ONLY research related facts that will support your perspective.
