[rev. May 28, 2010]
Turn down the gravity
This is all too heavy
I'll show you how the ancients once traveled
They used to call this a Chevy
Just before the continents sank
You could still go outside
I was sitting on a hot off ramp
She pulled up and asked me if I needed a ride
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
Deep space jam on an alien terrain
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
Some for the little boys who live down the lane
I should have known there was something amiss
She had unearthly eyes
She had a way of sifting through your mind
Like she'd done it to a million guys
She said, "Will you help with our research?"
I said, "Take me to your leader"
She put her foot down on the oscillation pedal
She was a transdimensional speeder
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
Protect me from the meteor rain
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
Put your exploratory probe right into my brain
They brought me back after thousands of years
I hadn't aged at all
We used to float around her weightless bedroom
That drove me right up the wall
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
You dropped me off and you've left me quite drained
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
Help me break these telekinetic chains
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
Deep space jam on an alien terrain
Terra Nova Cain, I need you again
Put your exploratory probe right into my brain
