Faxed Star Songtext
von Abandoned Babies

Cosmic snowball, the size of your town
Elliptical orbit approaching the sun
Getting so close - starting to melt
Getting too close - starting to glow

Expanse of ice begins to boil
One hundred thousand miles an hour
It′s the speed to go
To get your hair blowing in the breeze


Rapunzel!
Rapunzel!
Let down your hair
That I may climb thy golden stair!

Thank Isaac Newton for Halley's namesake
We′ve last seen you, back in '86
Just have to wait around, 'til the next ′61
Catch up with you then, in a brand new ship

Leave it behind, as particles of dust
Spray ice and rocks, hey, do as you must
Shooting star, in the corner of my eye
Lost from your tail, stretching millions of miles


Rapunzel!
Rapunzel!
Let down your hair
That I may climb thy golden stair!
