Bill Sutton - Bask Ye Samplers lyrics

Bask, ye samplers, bask in the light Space is dark, but the star is bright Bask in the heat of the distant sun It's gonna get hotter before we're done, So bask in the heat of the sun, boys, Bask in the heat of the sun! We mine the neutron matter from the heart of a living star Remotes can't pa** magnetic fields, machines can't go that far So we must ply our samplers to the edge of the stellar core And there release the drone ships to collect our neutron ore Bask, ye samplers, bask in the light Space is dark, but the star is bright Bask in the heat of the distant sun It's gonna get hotter before we're done, So bask in the heat of the sun, boys, Bask in the heat of the sun! A starship's drive is a neutron drive, and it pushes the speed of light The starships fly to the distant stars, we fly to the star in sight From cool and green to heat obscene we cross in the work we do We do it well and we brave this hell for the sake of the starship crew Bask, ye samplers, bask in the light Space is dark, but the star is bright Bask in the heat of the distant sun It's gonna get hotter before we're done, So bask in the heat of the sun, boys, Bask in the heat of the sun! A million miles to the core and back, in the heat of the fusion glow All mankind thrives on the lives we need, but only the samplers go If not for the neutrons we return, the starships could not run And so we mine like our fathers mined, and bask in the heat of the sun Bask, ye samplers, bask in the light Space is dark, but the star is bright Bask in the heat of the distant sun It's gonna get hotter before we're done, So bask in the heat of the sun, boys, Bask in the heat of the sun, boys, Bask in the heat of the sun!
