この記事ではこのアルバムに収録された『Blast Off』の歌詞を紹介
Blast Off
Clouds are blowing
Don’t know where we’re going
But we’re levitating up in this room
All these colors just like rainbows in summer
Got us smiling like our dreams just came true
I took a little something to get here yeah, yeah
I got a little more if you’re ready, we could have it all
Let’s tiptoe to a magical place
Blast off and kiss the moon tonight
We’ll watch the world go crazy from outer space
Blast off into the sky
As we’re flying stars are multiplying
We’re up so high we’d be fools to look down
(Don’t look down)
Shapes turn paisley this is so amazing
Destination pure sensation starting right now
I took a little something to get here yeah, yeah
I got a little more if you’re ready, we could have it all
Let’s tiptoe to a magical place
Blast off and kiss the moon tonight
We’ll watch the world go crazy from outer space
Blast off into the sky
Into the sky
Into the sky
Into the sky
Dance all night on Saturn’s ring
If You’ve got some friends that you wanna bring
Then Come on it’s time to take this party up and beyond
Let’s tiptoe to a magical place
(Come fly with me)
Blast off and kiss the moon tonight
(To the moon and the stars above)
We’ll watch the world go crazy from outer space
(You know the place and I got the tickets to get there)
Blast off into the sky
Blastin off straight to some good vibrations
Can we take it higher?
Ooo yeah
Blastin off straight to some good vibrations
Can we take it higher?
Ooo yeah
Blastin off straight to some good vibrations
Can we take it higher?
Ooo yeah
Blastin off straight to some good vibrations
Can we take it higher?
Ooo yeah
(Come on)
Blastin off straight to some good vibrations
Can we take it higher?
Ooo yeah
All the way from the stratosphere
Sending love from up above
Happy trails baba
