[Intro Sample: Mercury-Atlas 6 Launch]
[John H. Glenn, Jr.:]
"All prestart panel lights are correct
The ready light is on"
[Mercury Control:]
"Status check: pressurization?"
[Glenn:]
"Eject Mercury umbilical"
"T-minus eighteen second and counting
Engine start!"

Huh!

[Verse 1]
If you're in, I want out
Fuck you all, goodbye
Such a shame, it's been real
Hope you all die
Make a break for better days
Watch the world burning below
Vow we're not looking to make amends
Let them eat crow!

[Refrain]
Crow, crow, crow!

[Chorus]
In search of life on status quo
(In search of life on status quo)
So, Godspeed, go!
Our Northern Lights are getting low
(Our Northern Lights are getting low)
So, Godspeed, go!

[Verse 2]
Taste the pain, smell the burn
Of the first kill
Watched your face enjoy the ride
Like a pink pill
Never tell, promise?
Don't need to know
Nothing but the best
Civilization, or social unrest
[Refrain]
Rest, rest, rest!

[Chorus]
In search of life on status quo
(In search of life on status quo)
So, Godspeed, go!
Our Northern Lights are getting low
(Our Northern Lights are getting low)
So, Godspeed, go!

[Post-Chorus]
Go!

[Interlude Samples: MA-6 Launch]
[Byron MacNabb:]
"May the wee ones be with you, Thomas"
[Tom O'Malley:]
"The good Lord ride all the way"
[M. Scott Carpenter]
"Godspeed, John Glenn..."

Huh!

[Sample: Alan Shepard]
"Ten, nine, eight, seven
Six, five, four, three, two..."
[Chorus]
In search of life on status quo
(In search of life on status quo)
So, Godspeed, go!
Our Northern Lights are getting low
(Our Northern Lights are getting low)
So, Godspeed, go!

In search of life on status quo
(In search of life on status quo)
So, Godspeed, go!
Our Northern Lights are getting low
(Our Northern Lights are getting low)
So, Godspeed, go!

[Outro]
In search of life on status quo
(In search of life on status quo)
So, Godspeed, go!
Our Northern Lights are getting low
(Our Northern Lights are getting low)
So, Godspeed, go!

In search of life...
