Turn This Island Earth

A starfish in a sea of dreams

A ride that's never ending

From a lost world into a spinning

Fairground in space

Shining teapot spilling a mother ship of fire

Aladdin's lamp pouring down the Milky Way

Big Dipper roller coaster jumping jack exploding

Night and day you've whirling on a ferris wheel

Turn this Island Earth

A red shift cluster bright

Signal from the other side

Lampwick and Slats are laughing

Beyond the speed of light years passing

All the shooting stars

Rings of Saturn calling a red planet blazing

The singing moans of Jupiter around your eyes

Turn this Island Earth

Looking back from where we are

City lights clusters of stars

While we fly

A jewel in the crown of a universe

Saphire blue in a golden starburst

Oceans of deep blue

Standing on the moon

Gazing at all the mountains in China

Mother Earth sleeping

With all her children inside her

Starbound spirits

Rising in mind out of time

Free from the bonds around us

Captives in waking mankind

Turn this Island Earth
