Astronomy Domine

Lime and limpid green
A second scene
A fight between the blue
You once knew
Floating down the sound resounds
Around the icy waters underground
Jupiter and Saturn
Oberon Miranda and Titania
Neptune Titan
Stars can frighten you

Blinding signs flap flicker flicker flicker
Blam pow pow
Stairway scare Dan Dare
Who's there?

Lime and limpid green
The sound surrounds the icy waters under
Lime and limpid green
The sound surrounds the icy waters
Underground
