Everybody told me gem stuff's dangerous
I guess I didn't believe it
Until now
Dad always seemed apprehensive
And now he's really freaking out
What do I do?
I don't want that for you

Everybody tells me life is precious
On the planet earth
And that means you
And I have to protect you
What if somehow you get hurt?
What do I do?
I don't want that for you
Oooh

What am I going to tell you?
You're better off not knowing the trouble I'm in
I don't want you to worry
About what I've just seen
About where I've just been
You don't have to be a part of this
I don't think I want you to be
You don't need this
You don't need me
Oooh
Some say I have no direction
That I'm a lightspeed distraction
But that's a kneejerk reaction
Still, this is the final frontier
Everything is so clear
To my destiny I steer
This life in the stars is all I've ever known
Stars and stardust and infinite space is my only home

But the moment that I hit the stage
Thousands of voices are calling my name
And I know in my heart
It's been worth it all of the while
And as my albums fly off of the shelves
Handing out autographed pics of myself
This life I've chose isn't easy
It sure is one heck of a ride

At the moment that I hit the stage
I hear the universe calling my name
And I know deep down in my heart
I have nothing to fear
And as the solar wind blows through my hair
Knowing I have so much more left to share
A wandering spirit who's tearing its way
Through the cold atmosphere
I fly like a comet
Soar like a comet
Crash like a comet
I'm just a comet
