David Lee Roth sings about how Earth’s so screwed up the only possible solution is to seek another planet to live. The title thus means both “out of space” (Earth is exhausted) and “out to space” (better board a rocket and and leave it).
[Verse 1]
Need no polar bear to scare me
No Eskimo to share with me his fate
Wow, we outta space
No blogger needs to sell me
No dolphin needs to tell me
No starving kid
To make the case
[Chorus]
Counterblast, interstellar facial full
Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass:
"Go Home. The Earth Is Full."
Outta space, outta space
Outta space, outta space
[Verse 2]
80 acres of one stop shopping
Has somewhat changed the place
Wow, we outta space
I do not refuse it
I am guilty, I do use it
I am the reason
We outta space
[Chorus]
Counterblast, interstellar facial full
Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass:
"Go Home. The Earth Is Full."
Outta space, outta space
Outta space, outta space
[Solo]
[Bridge]
Danger rides the web tonight
Burst mode dynamite
Spinning up my Facebook page
And I'll ride out towards the outer maze
[Verse 3]
The future ain't what it used to be
Time to change my galaxy in case
We outta space!
Trouble-free Earth despocrats
Made Mother Nature piss her pants
And when that's human way, whoo
[Chorus]
Counterblast, interstellar facial full
Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass:
"Go Home. The Earth Is Full."
Outta space, outta space
Outta space, outta space
