This was also my entry for Uke to Bridge August

Lyrics

In space no one can hear you scream But earth’s blue skies are but a dream
I wish that I could see green fields Instead of radiation shields

The human race knows where to go Ad astra per aspera so
We will explore the universe The isolation’s getting worse

It’s cold here hard to keep alive When outside’s minus 65
And one third gravity a stateThat means I am one third the weight

I’m starting to enjoy the taste When drinking my recycled waste
But sometimes I admit I miss The taste of your lips when we kiss

I wish we could communicate But there’s a 20 minute wait
I don’t have very much to say One forty million miles away

I really wish that you were here There’s not a lot of atmosphere
And what there is is CO2 Will I return? I wish I knew

With Fear and Terror overhead The ground a rusty shade of red
Why come to this benighted place Why cross the black of outer space?

Fun song. Very different. I like the ukulele on this.
