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
