Comet Kahoutek looked like a firefly
It was just a no-show in the summer sky
Radio transmissions bouncin’ off the dishes
Quasars and shootin’ stars, flags and secret missions
Livin’ in the Milky Way
Just a little point of light in the big black sea of space.
Livin’ in the Milky Way
Carl Sagan is on the tube tonight
He’s got a billion bucks tucked away out of sight
Nuclear winter and constellations, sister
Refractor telescope, hey, try this black hole on for size
Livin’ in the Milky Way
Just a little point of light in the big black sea of space.
Livin’ in the Milky Way
Climate air-conditioned, we’re such good magicians
Concrete and steel and oil, you can hardly see the sky
Miles and miles of pavement so we can go where we went
Runnin’ in circles and we’re runnin’ out of time
Livin’ in the Milky Way
Just a little point of light in the big black sea of space.
Livin’ in the Milky Way
