Look Skyward


Look skyward, into the night time sky.
i'm a star down here on earth girl -
and down here, stars, they have to die.
look skyward, into the heavens above.
there's a lot of stars in the sky, girl -
for you to love.
look skyward, cuz girl you know i adore ya.
i like to go to the moon with ya baby -
but we're stuck here in california!
A constellation, of hesitation, spinning round my brain.
Look skyward, cuz girl you know it's true.
use the telescope i bought you -
set it up in the swimming pool.
look skyward because the view is great.
here's a tennis court for you birthday -
here's my picture on a dinner plate.
look skyward, for the messages god sends me,
like why was jimmy killed?
and how come i didn't win the fucking emmy?!
A constellation, of hesitation, spinning round my brain.
My man carl sagan once said the heavens was filled with all kinds of mysteries,
the answer to our future - the transmissions of our history.
they say that stars are just balls of gas - beaming down toward the earth.
they say every star you see died years ago baby -
i always thought i would die first.
but i'd trade my place tomorrow - cuz i couldn't live one more day.
i'd rather die up there in heaven. than live down here in l.a.!!
A constellation, of hesitation, spinning round my brain.
