Dan Bull - The Outer Worlds

Текст песни

A-one, a-two
A-one, two, three, four
Come on out to the outer worlds
Come on out to the outer worlds
Did you have a dream you could work in space?
Get away from the rat race, immersed in nature?
If you long for better ways to earn your paycheck
Then come along to Halcyon, the worlds await ya
Danger, danger, got to make a good decision
You’re faced with a range of available positions
So pick one quick and then take a trip to live in
This particular destination then begin to make a living
So come on out to the outer worlds
There’s ample opportunity so help yourself
A splash of colours really helps to sell
The promotional utopia surrounding hell
We need workers and you need work
Each occupation brings unique perks
Stop crewing groundbreaker, start moving earth
We’ve got locational vocations for your choosing, serf
Please allow a guy to clarify a few things first
You can skip past the small print, it’s all confusing words
It’s just a technicality that says you have to see the contract
Look! A technicolour TV, you really want that!
So come on out to the outer worlds
There’s ample opportunity so help yourself
A splash of colours really helps to sell
The promotional utopia surrounding hell, knock, knock
Come on out to the outer worlds
No matter how you’ve felt you’ll seldom fail to tell
It’s a Helter Skelter whirling round and filled
To the hilt with thrills, it’s the outer worlds
Come on out to the outer worlds
Come on out to the outer worlds
Attention, please
Calling all you rejects, we can let you reset
Your standing in society and hide your creepy defects
We can’t agree to higher fees, we’ll hire you for peanuts
But why would we provide what you’re not likely to need yet?
What good’s a budget when you’re fighting ugly creatures,
With the mouth-breathing features of your former DT teacher?
It’s in the manual, standard operational procedure
Been there, done that, stole the bloody t-shirt
We’ve stashed a lot of weapons
To bash somebody’s head in
So be careful what you want
Because it could be what you’re getting
So come on out to the outer worlds
There’s ample opportunity so help yourself
A splash of colours really helps to sell
The promotional utopia surrounding hell, knock, knock
Come on out to the outer worlds
No matter how you’ve felt you’ll seldom fail to tell
It’s a Helter Skelter whirling round and filled
To the hilt with thrills, it’s the outer worlds
A little observation
You wish to rap but it is that’s rhyming
You kind of seem like you’d be alright at mining
Life’s hard but you’re a shining diamond
Just sign the line here beside the hyphens
And I’ll provide you unspoiled horizons
To heightened delight, leave minds enlightened
You’ll find time for fine wine and dining
The highlights of high life or lying in
See the dollars signs? We are colonising the skies
Follow the economy, it’s gonna provide a sizeable
Income, just wait and see, but it isn’t for the little man
The HHC’s gonna take it and make him pay the fee
His salary’s another technicality that we
Just have to seem as if we’re carrying out the instructions
Till it’s adjusted to account for some deductions
We’re packing stacks of ammo
Shred flesh and crack enamel
So be careful how you spend your cash
Or you might have to haggle
So come on out to the outer worlds
There’s ample opportunity so help yourself
A splash of colours really helps to sell
The promotional utopia surrounding hell, knock, knock
Come on out to the outer worlds
No matter how you’ve felt you’ll seldom fail to tell
It’s a Helter Skelter whirling round and filled
To the hilt with thrills, it’s the outer worlds
Come on out to the outer worlds
Come on out to the outer worlds
Get stronger, live longer
Lift up those digits, numbers
Dictate mind, body, and your personality
So quick, hey my, buddy pick your speciality
Hitting people with sticks or finer technicalities
You’ll find a set of qualities to fit your partiality
Whatever your talent there’s a planet to inhabit
Here’s an opportunity and all you’ve got to do is grab it
Slaving all day, no vacation break or Sabbaths
'Cause labour makes us happier than rabbits given carrots
So come on and give it a go, pal
But if you don’t wanna, oh well
There’s another dozen suckers up for working, no doubt
So shall we?
It’s low salary but we don’t need to save
These rates of fatalities are so great
That your mortality is a formality
The longer you stay healthy the more chance of a malady
We’re shilling medication
To make you better paying
Customers under sedation
Revamp work as recreation
Brainwashing as education
Lack of thought as meditation
Capital needs generation
And you’re just the gent to make it
So come on out to the outer worlds
There’s ample opportunity so help yourself
A splash of colours really helps to sell
The promotional utopia surrounding hell, knock, knock
Come on out to the outer worlds
Come on out to the outer worlds
Come on out to the outer worlds
Come on out, come on out
Come on out to the outer worlds
