letra de surprise! - julia ecklar & leslie fish
remember the fifties, those fat complacent days
when the future seemed a century away?
then up went sputnik; gave the world a b-tt-kick
and made it clear tomorrow starts today!
[chorus:]
beep-beep, boop-boop, h-llo there! (hey zhopa!)
sputnik sails giggling through the skies. (hey hey hey!)
red flags, red faces, jump in the race as
the sp-ce age begins with a surprise. (surprise!)
you generals once thought von braun a waste of cash
and that goddard needеd treatment really bad
thеn that global shot-put gave you a hot foot
and beep-beep, you’re blasted off the pad
[chorus]
done for a threat, propaganda or prestige?
the point is, the thing was in the sky!
it made generals frown and put money down and
meet that bet or know the reason why
[chorus]
that’s how it started, all those years ago:
the push that got us climbing into sp-ce!
cynic beginnings, greed for big winnings
but look at all we’ve gotten from that race!
[chorus]
sputnik wore out and spiraled back to earth
on re-entry, it burned up very soon
hail and goodbye to that upstart of the sky!
and in twelve more years, a man walked on the moon!
[chorus]
