Phil Ochs - Spaceman Lyrics
[first: the melody by itself, whistled]Way high, so high:Travelin fast and free.Spaceman, look down:Tell me what you see.Can you see the hunger thereStrike without a sound?Can you see the food you burnAs you circle round?Way high, so high:All the world will cheer.Spaceman, look down:Tell me what you hear.Can you hear a child cry,Body filled with pain?Deadly sores when cures are there--How much fuel remains?Way high, so high:Spaceship made of steel.Spaceman, look down:Tell me what you feel.Can you feel the money goneAs you sail through space?Can you feel how many dieWhen you win the race?Way high, so high:Travelin fast and free.Spaceman, look down:Tell me what you see.[end: first two lines of the melody again, whistled.]
