Be Careful What You Wish
(Lyrics: Merryweather)

It’s so beautiful!
It’s incredible!

Mother. Mother? Mother respond?
Mother’s not talking.
Doesn’t seem to recognise my speech patterns. Mother respond
Yeh I’ve set it to run ‘til it’s recognised Yeah I’ve set it to run til it’s recognised
Doesn’t seem to recognise my speech patterns
It’s so beautiful Mother’s not talking
It’s incredible
All I ever wished for
I could fall right through
Go freestyle
It’s everything I wished for
I’m on a real high

I’ve just been standing here and gazing outside Moving at this speed
…I’m the only one out yet I’m the only one out
…their life support systems look normal Can’t take my eyes off all this
…For a few hours now Yeah for a few hours
…only certain stuff I can access Be a long time to be on my own
…long time to be on my own right? Am I alone
….Some hours have passed I think
….Can’t take my eyes off infinity
…moving at this speed.

…there’s been some shift in the cargo some shift in the cargo
…something’s happened all I ever wished for
…some stuff I don’t understand….. something’s happened
…no, but it’s expensive whatever it is!….. all I ever wished for
…the crew will sort it when they’re awake….. I could fall right through
…the Company didn’t get back to me…I’ll keep trying
I’ve just been standing here
…I’ll be unable to contact your base for a couple of months now….
Well something’s happened
…when we get back to this quadrant…. Stuff I don’t really understand
…thank you…signing off. I’ve just been standing here and gazing
Some hours have passed
…I’ve just been standing here and gazing outside
can’t take my eyes off all this beauty
…some hours have passed I think
…can’t take my eyes off infinity it’s so beautiful
…moving at this speed……am I alone some hours
moving at this speed
…It’s so beautiful…incredible!
