Lyrics
Stay silent as a filmstrip
screened in outer space
Watch out for the clip man
the slow crush will keep us in place
Stay steady as a flagpole
planted on the moon
No wind to interrupt us
from our impending doom
You sold your songs
And now they’re featured in a biopic about Shackelton
They were too long
A stretched out throng
Now they will begin the show
A theme song to the ice floes
The affairs were all muddled
and the ventures didn’t take
Heading south for comfort
your last chance to vindicate
Antarctic exploration
misguided and misplaced
The truest unbeliever
told you it’s not a race
You sold your songs
And now they’re featured in a biopic about Shackelton
The tundra’s drawn
like shades at dawn
He becomes a champion
A name to build an age upon
But it’s gone
Yeah it’s gone
You were looking for a secret handshake
But all you got was a wave
