Come In Outerspace (G. Kooymans/B. Hay) 1980 Prisoner Of The Night


Few things really get me mad, disappointed or truly sad
I’m out on the beach lookin’ for a light, shootin’ through the summer night
And when the sun comes up, I’m going blind from stretch and strainin’ my mind’s eye


I don’t know why I keep it up, twenty five years gone down on luck
Everybody’s seen ‘em by now, I feel like I am bein’ left out


Come on in outerspace, I wanna see you too
Losin’ all my money on the books they wrote about you
Tune in outerspace, something gotta give you face
Maybe it’s vanity, don’t you think that you owe it to me


When I’m at home insecure, they scrutinize me for sure
I take a pill and a I fall asleep, can’t shake it off I’m in the deep
And when the sun goes down, I’m up alright from the stretch and strainin’ my mind’s eye


I don’t know why I keep it up, twenty five years gone down on luck
Everybody’s seen ‘em by now, I feel like I am bein’ left out


Come on in outerspace, I wanna see you too
Losin’ all my money on the books they wrote about you
Tune in outerspace, something gotta give you face
Maybe it’s vanity, don’t you think that you owe it to me


Come on in outerspace, I wanna see you too
Losin’ all my money on the books they wrote about you
Tune in outerspace, something gotta give you face
Maybe it’s vanity, don’t you think that you owe it to me


Come on, come on


Don’t you think that you owe it to me
