The Moon is a Staging Ground

from Techno Alien by The Songs of Tom Smith

/

lyrics

Look up see the lights on the moon
Point your rocket and fly
No one claims ownership of space
Just try stopping us mine it
The Moon is the 8th continent of Earth
Step 1 to secure our future
Then its Mars and the asteroid belts
Then any direction you choose

CHORUS
Water is the oil of the solar system
The moon is the staging ground
The moon is the staging ground
Next level business

3D print a permanent base
Low gravity temperature extremes
Lunar soil used for backfill
Thermal radiation shield
Iron, titanium, aluminium
Got all we need
Polar ice supports life
Propel rockets further afield

CHORUS

Unlike colonising the Earth
No other life forms to deal with
Or get to them before they get to us
Science and tech superior
Let them die off - introduced disease
In the care of the corporation
Separate family and language groups
Import them as cheap labour
