Chang‐E Songtext
von Emmy the Great

There′s more to life than New York City
As I climb ten thousand steps up to the temple
I begin to believe that this journey
Will be easier if I wasn't so literal

While I′m gone look after yourself
I don't want to hear reports that you were lonely
And if you see the moon over some avenue
Think of me, think of me

You once told me about the moon
And the first man to walk on her
How they saw the view
Of the oceans without water
They were searching for a Chinese queen
Couple of salesmen trying to shill
An American dream

When we achieve weightlessness
We'll fly into the air like charcoal
Look down on a beam to the places that we′ve been


You once told me about the moon
And the first man to walk on her
How they came to love the view
Of the oceans without water
They keep on searching for a Chinese queen
Couple of salesmen trying to shift
Themselves from this dream

Where have you been?
Where have you been all of my life, queen?
Moonwalking
Convincing the sky to give you its light
With your smooth talking
Where have you been all of my life, queen?
Moonwalking
Convincing the sky to give you its light
With your smooth talking

When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness

When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness

When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness


When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness
When we achieve weightlessness
