These Elvis poses, postcards and neopryn

Roses a dollar a stem

Everyone's sleeping or pulling a long haul,
7
The keys in the cooler, it's 3 a.m.
8
[Chorus 1]
9
And Saturn is orbiting nothing
10
Is off on it's own
11
Is offering up

You pull the ladder u

No one's the wiser

[Chorus 2]

That Saturn is orbiting nothing

Is off on it's own

Is breaking from home

Saturn return when you chase down it's moons
40
Throw them into a new gravity
41

Easy to poke yourself, easy as pie

Easy to take off, harder to fly
