@SONG: Nuclear Drive
 

Before I had time to think about it
And right before my eyes
The machine had landed and the doors were open wide
I stepped inside the spaceship, a voice said
"Take a seat man, do you want to cruise the Universe
 to where no one else has ever been?"

With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive

Bur before I could answer
The ship began to rise
I looked out of the porthole
And felt most peculiar inside
Take me up the skyways
Show me what you've seen
I want to cruise the universe in your superspace machine

With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive
With our nuclear drive

@SONG: Star Cannibal
 

Jaws of blue open wide the sky
Silence split with thunder men who fly
Descent the jaws of cosmic brood
For their appetite we the fleshly food

Rising souls and carcassed bone
Fleshless remains in every home
Onwards crunching munching men
Star Cannibal has come again

Flesh fondue - main course stew
Of his unearthly human crew

He partakes of us at will
Enigmatic one we cannot kill
Flesh fondue - main course stew
Of his unearthly human crew

@SONG: Fall of Earth City
 

news ahd drifted on the wind of many minds that this was to be an
occassion of great importance. For it was said by some that Earth City
had uncovered a single time sleeper from the time before.

Although the cryptic writings upon his tomb were now faded beyond
decipherable reading, it was said, by the disembodied members of the
ruling kind, that the entombed was from that time on Earth before the
city stretched its metal web from pole to pole leaving green things only
in the wells of immortal minds.

Upon the third revolution after its arrival, the tomb that slept without
life was removed for inspection. The day was programmed for a clear dome
above, with a mild breeze wafting from the central weather post. Below,
throngs of class three occupants were gathering from various sectors to
observe the opening. As per standard procedure, their data input
stations were fed appropriate propaganda so that their reports would
coincide with what the rulers had predetermined.

And so it was on that day of opening, his spirit did appear and confuse
once again. It was evident to all that what lay within was not of mortal
composure. Thoughts emanating from deep within its dimensionless cave
conveyed this belief to all within the medi-dome.

What is this appariition now amongst our kind?

Quickly thereafter, all pressure was released from within the stillness.
Earth City, unknowingly at that time, was about to enter a new phase of
its existence.

Violent quaking began to shake the towers of sector 63. Manifestations
of melting spead its wings over the structure until once again, ancient
soil kissed the sky.

And the beginning of the end swept all that was into its eternal grasp.

@SONG: The Joker at the Gate
 

People function, dreaming their dreams.
People function, scheming their schemes
People function, trusting to fate
Looking for the Joker, but it's too late

Is there still a moment somewhere 
That will surprise us with its tricks?

I am the holder of seven dreams
Faceless possessor of all life's schemes
Through me you can laugh in the face of fate
I am the Joker at your gate

LOOKING IN THE FUTURE
( - ? - )
Lives of great men all remind us
we may make our lives sublime
And so departing leave behing us
Footprints in the sands of time
And with the writing I will show you
Looking in the days beyond recall
As I lecture with the spirits on the
other side
 
I'm living in the future
I'm looking in the future
I'm living in the future
 
Not a sound was heard
No call came from the bird
Only the carpet of green
From towering tres was seen
Where have they all gone?
Why was there no song?
 
I'm living in the future
Looking at the past
 
@SONG: The Phenomenon of Luminosity
 

Friendship Seven:

I'll try to describe what I'm in here. I'm in a big mass of some very small
particles that are brilliantly lit up, like they're luminescent. I never
saw anything like it. They're coming by the capsule, and they look like
