[Intro]
Are you ready? Here we go
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
[Verse 1]
Countdown, it's getting near the flight time
Night stars are shining in my eyes
Ma says I'm gonna be the first one
To dance the be-bop in the skies
[Chorus]
Dancing in heaven
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
(Kick it out)
[Post-Chorus]
Slow, slow, quick, quick, slow
[Verse 2]
I'll be the first to bossa nova
Ten thousand miles above L.A.
Boogie my way beyond the radar
I'll bring the jive to outer space
[Chorus]
Dancing in heaven (Here we go)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop (Keep it up)
Dancing in heaven
I never thought (Do the bop, do the bop)
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
[Bridge]
Hey (Check)
Here I am (You've really gone)
I hear the universe sing
The celestial swing
I, I'm not alone
Are you receiving me clear?
There's others out here
[Chorus]
Dancing in heaven (Here we go)
I never thought (Do the bop)
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop (Keep it up)
Dancing in heaven (In time)
I never thought (Do the bop)
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
[Instrumental Break]
(Ha-ha)
[Chorus]
(Take a three, four, take a ride)
Dancing in heaven (Here we go)
I never thought (Do the bop)
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop (Keep it up)
Dancing in heaven (In time)
I never thought (Do the bop, do the bop)
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop (Let's get away)
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
[Bridge]
Hey (Check)
Here I am (You've really gone)
I hear the universe sing
The celestial swing
I, I'm not alone
Are you receiving me clear?
There's others out here
Orbital be-bop
Orbital be-bop
Orbital be-bop
[Instrumental Break]
(Take a three, four, take a ride)
[Chorus]
Dancing in heaven (Here we go)
I never thought (Do the bop)
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop (Keep it up)
Dancing in heaven (In time)
I never thought (Do the bop, do the bop)
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop (Let's get away)
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
Orbital be-bop
Dancing in heaven (Leave the future behind)
I never thought
I'd ever get my feet this far
