Enter Shikari - The Sights lyrics

Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight? You’ll never believe the sights tonight The sights tonight, the sights Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight? You’ll never believe the sights tonight The sights tonight Mr. Magpie You got distracted by the gleam of the diamonds, as you flew by But their dull glint does not impress When there’s a billion stars in the sky I sit gripping my pen like a breadknife As I write, I’m leaving this Earth for the stars tonight And now I’m running to board the flight Now I’ll boldly go Into the great unknown Unless I’m Jacques Cousteau I give you my mind to be blown Now I’ll boldly go Into the great unknown Like Marcus Cicero Well this life is whole I’m searching far and wide to find a planet to orbit Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it Far and wide, you’re my new planet to orbit So fire up the rockets Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight? You’ll never believe the sights tonight The sights tonight, the sights Are you staying awake for the liftoff, tonight? You’ll never believe the sights tonight The sights tonight, the sights Now I’ll boldly go Into the great unknown Unless I’m Jacques Cousteau I give you my mind to be blown Now I’ll boldly go Into the great unknown Like Marcus Cicero Well this life is whole I’m searching far and wide to find a planet to orbit Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it Far and wide, you’re my new planet to orbit So fire up the rockets It’s over now and I’m a little bit petrified Of what’s to come, yeah my head’s a bit stir-fried It’s over now and I’m a little unqualified But fire up the rockets (I’m searching) far and wide to find a planet to orbit Far and wide, I wanna scan and explore it Far and wide, you’re my new planet to orbit So fire up the rockets
