Savor every Detour

This is my entry for Round 3 of the Information Finding Contest. I still am not sure where we are or where we are heading, but its the fun we have on the journey that counts! Those of you familiar with my blog will know this is a return to song writing for me, after a long hiatus.



Lyrics:

Intergalactic Information Finding,
after all I'm sure you won't be minding
if we take from you this space ship here
and make 'astronaut' our new career.

Chorus:

Boldly going where no one has before
we take our time and savor every detour.
Advancing knowledge is the ultimate prize
as we explore these midnight skies.

Heading out of the solar system
Hold all my calls, I'd just miss them.
Distortions in the temporal zone,
through a worm hole our ship begins to moan!

Our laboratory is stocked with tests,
our scientists are the very best.
But mechanics now we don't have a lot;
we'll need to find a place to stop!

Chorus:

Boldly going where no one has before
we take our time and savor every detour.
Advancing knowledge is the ultimate prize
as we explore these midnight skies.

This ship we're going to have to land it
and habitate on unknown planets.
Change the oil and add some grease
before our engine decides to seize.

We'll examine all of the new biology
this planet's zones have a very strange forestry.
The security team is sharpening machetes;
hopefully we don't find any yetis.

Chorus:

Boldly going where no one has before
we take our time and savor every detour.
Advancing knowledge is the ultimate prize
as we explore these midnight skies.

And on and on our adventures go;
Tune in next week and enjoy the show!

Chorus:

Boldly going where no one has before
we take our time and savor every detour.
Advancing knowledge is the ultimate prize
as we explore these midnight skies.


As a bonus, here is the description from Sound Cloud:

Whoa.. Excellent job! I love how it starts out!

Intergalactic Information Finding,

And this next part is probably my favorite part, dope lyrics!

Boldly going where no one has before

Well.. My favorite part next to this one anyways!

The security team is sharpening machetes;
hopefully we don't find any yetis.

This part literally made me burst out laughing in a positive/good way, love it!

Did not expect even one person to actually vocally perform a song, now we have two people who did! Epic! This is going to be really hard to judge!

I dunno who is going to win and it's not my decision who wins as it depends on all the judges who vote, though if this doesn't win I hope we can still combine it with the one who does win and make a collaboration out of it because this is too awesome to not be used in my opinion.

The only thing that was missing was some kind of beat or tune in the background, though I'm sure we(or you) can find something good for that! I can't wait to see how this turns out!! I'm super excited. Well done!

Agreed on the beat! unfortunately I am not yet a 'complete' musician, more of a poet not embarrassed to hum his own tunes.

If someone holds the mic I have been knows to do something like this:

But that's why I am so excited you have staff musicians to help ;p. We should have some prizes for them!

That was awesome. :) Loved it. the last part with Trump and a fence made me laugh. You're quite a talented poet.
Although you know there's a lot of copyright free music out there you could use?
I need to put more of my poetry to spoken word/music videos when time permits, but here's one I did in the past if you wanna check it out. PS Congrats on the nice upvote by Blocktrades.

Nice. That was awesome. I'm really impressed that people are able to write such good lyrics. I think this song really captures the message of the IFC. Well done :)
