Build me my thought guitar
I want my aero-car
I need my moving sidewalks
Talk to robots, every single day
Fly me into zero Gs
Blind me with LEDs
I long to be appeased by
Things that make me feel I'm more than man
Where is our odyssey
In this technology?
It's such an oddity
Maybe I have blinked and missed it
Or maybe it's a futuristic lie
No stars to align the date
No walking without weight
Endeared by fear of fate
So we abate it in a lazy dream
No towns floating in the air
No voyage, we don't care
Ignore the poor and don't explore
We just need pain and popcorn war
Where is our odyssey
In this technology?
It's such an oddity
Maybe I have blinked and missed it
Or maybe it's a futuristic lie
Explorers are whores for a warring nation
So settle for some sci-fi calculation
I want to reach for the sky
I want to find out why
Where is our odyssey
In this technology?
It's such an oddity
Maybe I have blinked and missed it
Or maybe it's a futuristic lie
Go on and promote our team
Have astronaut ice cream
You're just a simulation
Show the nation every loyalty
Tune in for the laser wars
Try not to ponder Mars
Who needs it anyway?
I wonder what would Galileo say?
