"Nine Lives To Rigel Five" lyrics - GAME THEORY

Side by side slide by space and time
The Neil Armstrong telecasts of Nineteen Sixty-Nine
Proportion distortion I saw in those shoes
And I learned a kind of ego that I doubt I'll ever lose
It's nine lives to Rigel Five, nine lives to Rigel Five
And I've waited nine lives for Rigel Five
With nothing to say when I arrive
Joan Jones proposed that we leave our homes
Like runaway gnomes in the twilight zone
They said, baby, when you're grown it all means more
I said, let's get out the twister game and get down on all fours
It's nine lives to Rigel Five...
Well I know a problem that physics can't resolve
A cover that acid won't dissolve
A place that's just too far, I think, for us to go
Now is right to have a hope so strong
For real-time answers to real-world wrongs
Oh Susanna if you've got to cry for me
Send me back to Alabama with a banjo on my knee
And nine lives to Rigel Five, nine lives to Rigel Five
And I've waited nine lives for Rigel Five
With nothing to say but goodbye
