Interstellar overdrive is playing on her phonograph

She believes he's still alive out there in his hovercraft

Entering the atmosphere it shudders and it breaks apart

Fragments falling everywhere one hits her heart



Your lonely sister is praying for an astronaut

She rises from her knees to knock his helmet off



Walking in an open field she comes across an ankle bone

Takes it home and drills a hole and wears it on a leather thong

Having such an awful time accepting that he's really dead

Her astronaut's alive and well inside her head



Your lonely sister is praying for an astronaut

She rises from her knees to knock his helmet off
