lyrics

We can’t go nowhere
We must go somewhere

We must move forward
We can’t move backwards

We must react to
No reaction
No more can we rely
In voices from the sky
We must adapt to
What has happened
Take stock of our supplies
While there is still some time
We can’t stay nowhere
We must land somewhere
We’re gravity defined
It’s law we can’t defy
We must draw earth-ward
Our final rebirth
We’ll burst out from the skies
A fireball of surprise

To Rule
Know More
In Space
No More
Space Walk
Know More
One Burn
No More

Just one more turn
We finally turn homeward
One more burn
Then back to our world now
They’ll learn our names
Like Laika and Gagarin
And forget the phrase
N-A-S-A
And U-S-A...

He must survey
The Emese now
To see if she’s alright
To make our final flight
Three days to go
To get back home
We’ll ration our supplies
Without answering the whys
Our trust in Moscow
Irrelevant now
Did they build our spaceship right
To survive the return flight
He’s through the hatch now
Let’s hold our breath now
For the ship and for his fate
In the hands of outer space

Just one more turn
We finally turn homeward
One more burn
Then back to our world now
They’ll forget the names
Laika and Gagarin
And remember always
We are the Emese! (3x)
Oh Emese

Space Walk
Know More
Damaged
No More
One Burn
No More
One Hole
No More


Our Journey home’s begun
On the Skyway from the Sun
Three days until we’re done
With Earth we’ll soon be one

Like a gift from the skies
We’ll swoop in from the dark
With the strength of Csaba’s army
And the light of his spark

Our Journey home’s begun
On the Skyway from the Sun

And if our leaders abandoned us
Left us for dead
The cheering crowds will defeat them
Lift us high on their heads

Three days until we’re done
With Earth we’ll soon be one

No communist lies
Or capitalist plots
Not sabotaged gear
Our ship can’t be stopped

On the Skyway from the Sun
With Earth we’ll soon be one

Our own new world of opportunities
We’ll be made socialist deities
