[Verse 1]
Got some action on the other side
Loose teeth in my head
New programs are comin' in
So rise and take your oath
I wish we'd get away
Drink wine and screw
I knew someone else before
Looked a lot like you
[Chorus]
And they're gone, I'm gone
In space
[Verse 2]
I've been programmed, as I said before
Technology
Just rollin', wheezin' and breathin'
Eyeballs and teeth
Words are weightless here on Earth
Because they're free
You knew someone else before
Looked a lot like me
[Chorus]
And they're gone, I'm gone
In space
And they're gone, and I'm gone
In space
[Interlude]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
[Instrumental Outro]
