"This is the BBC World Service, it's 4am, Good Morning, we hope you slept well."

Stairway to the moon
I got a raspberry flavoured broom
Chicken in a monkey hat
Stick him in my open room
Lavender licks the lives of lovers who are leaving
Sheltered by their uncle's son's with tournequets a-bleeding

"More people die at 4am than at any other time of the day."

Another
Step up
The progression Ladder
Another
Vision
Of a probable future
Another
Night out
With the face of a goon
Another
Stairway
To the moon

Stairway to the moon
It's a mission of doom
Broken down fancy pants
Vamos a las just like ants
Margerine, Cellophane, Bricks and mortar window pane
Coming from the underground, subterranean compound

"More people die at 4am than at any other time of the day."

Another
Step up
The progression Ladder
Another
Vision
Of a probable future
Another
Night out
With the face of a goon
Another
Stairway
To the moon

"And the Righteous shall find deliverance in their ascention up into Heaven."

Shit I'm dying and I don't know why
You always said that we would learn to fly
I've got nothing left that I can try
Shit we're dying and we don't know why

Shit we're dying and we don't know why (x6)

Reason slept long ago
and was buried alive
And now all that remains
are gods and monsters
And who can say which is which?

Turn toward the light
A thousand suns flaring
Building a stairway to heaven
To the cold gray dust of the moon

Turn toward the light
A thousand suns flaring
A stairway to heaven
The final gray void

Here is your hope
Your faith in death
Destroyer of worlds
Trinity

I see the mass graves
and fountains of blood
Oh, we're getting closer
As we slouch toward the moon

Pretend it’s just a ride, he said,
Like down at CarneytownUSA.
You remember the rides my sweet girl?
Imagine you on the carney fairway.

But I could only remember one ride
And I tried to make it come true.
It was a wonderful journey to space
And best part was Stairway to the Moon.

And so when my mom’s new boyfriend
Crept late at night into my bedroom
I learned I could make it all go away
On the bright shining Stairway
Stairway to the Moon.


It’s been years since I learned this trick.
I’ve used it many times since then.
Married a man from the Agency
And now our daughter is the age I was when.

She came to me and began to cry
She tried to tell me but just couldn’t say
We took the train to Houston that very day
She’ll never travel on the lonely Stairway.

It’s soon now that I’ll be going for good
I can hardly open my eyes to see you
But you know where I’ll always be
Blind from the moon and I’ll never get free —
Stairway to the Moon.

Stairway to the Moon - By Jolly Roger

Since you died
I never felt at home
On this little piece of earth
That I thought was my own

Since you left
When I look up to the sky
I see you in the moon
Your my jewel you're my light

You want to get rid of me
I will not obey your plea
My way I might follow through
I'll take a stairway to the moon

I know that the climb is long
It's easy now you are gone
Try to understand my point of view

You said we'd fly
If only you had known
Every word you said
I knew I could have flown

Since we cried
I never felt alone
No matter what happened

You said we'd fly
If only you had known
That since you died
I never felt at home

Since we cried
I never felt alone
No matter what happened

Since we cried

Since you died

Bargain bucket capsules to the moon
Carbon climbers racing up and down
Elevator dedication night
Cable frayed by micro-meteorite

Trapped passengers must wait - if cables break,
Escape velocity will fire them into space
Upside down, like Poesidon Adventure,
Stuck at the end of their orbital tethers

It's a disaster waiting to happen
A disaster ... waiting ...

Radiation from Van Allen belts
Cable shudders, minds begin to melt
Anchor station helpless, Beanstalk jacks
Catapults the capsule into the black

It's a disaster waiting to happen
It's a disaster waiting to happen
Stairway to the moon is falling down

Shirley, you can't be serious
Shirley, you can't be serious

Stairway to the Moon - Frankie Big Face

Well, I heard you took the flatware
And found a crater for a new welcome mat.
Hitched a ride on a bovine
With a Paganini-playing cat.
And I wrote this song to tell you
Just how I'm gonna get you back.

I'm gonna find a giant cannon
Like the one that PT Barnum used
But with a skyscraping barrel
And a miniature quick-start fuse
No don't worry 'bout me baby
'Cause you know I can take the abuse

Ooh, baby baby
You're gonna be home soon
'Cause if worse comes to worse comes to worst
I'll build a stairway to the moon

I don't know how you got there
But I know I'm gonna let you down
'Cause nothing feels the same here
Without you to push me around
And I'm gonna find the devil who did this
If I gotta check every mirror in this town

Ooh, baby baby
You're gonna be home soon
'Cause if worse comes to worse comes to worst
I'll build a stairway to the moon
'Cause if worse comes to worse comes to worst
I'll build a stairway to the moon

Space is a waste
I'm gonna fill our house
With the light of love.

Stairway to the Moon - Ted and Jon's Excellent Adventure

Baby come stand next to me
Together we'll make history
A stairway only your love ends
We'll take on all the turns and bends

A stairway to the moon with you
A stairway that will keep us true
I'll sing to you a special tune
We'll take a staircase to the moon

The trips been long but I can stand
Just walk by me and take my hand
l'll walk with you among the stars
Just give me time to heal your scars

A stairway to the moon with you
A stairway that will keep us true
I'll sing to you a special tune
We'll take a staircase to the moon

Suns gone down and that leaves you
We'll take a staircase to the moon
I never meant to make you cry
I'll heal your wounds up in the sky

Fly me over to your side
I promise you a magic ride
I'll sing to you a special tune
We'll take a staircase to the moon

Fly me over to your side
I promise you a magic ride
I'll sing to you a special tune
We'll take a staircase to the moon

Corn on the Cob

You can't get it
what? You want it?
Looks like your grounded again
that might be right
I don't ask the question
you just keep on walking
I don't look in your direction

but push me, and I'll go up
if you show me your stairway to the moon
I'll drink the whole cup
push me, I'll go up
might take a little piece of heaven
a little piece of heaven back

one step up
one foot ahead
one look back
one wave of vertigo
holy s, I forgot my spacesuit
oh no...I'm prying apart
holy s, I forgot my spacesuit

well, push me over
the railing of a stairway to the moon
and I'll fall for hours
push me over myself
pull me up your stairway to the moon

...moon...

push me and I'll go up
follow you up your stairway to the moon
and I'll drink the whole cup
push me, I'll go up
gonna take a little piece of heaven
a little piece of heaven back

Jon Eric - Stairway to the Moon

Life is a journey but we're making good time,
You've got your obstacles and I've got mine
You tried to make life even harder than it is
But that's that part of you that I'm gonna miss

Well it's alright, it's gonna be over soon
You worked your body till you had to stop
For you I built a little stairway to the moon
You followed me up to the very top
just to jump

So here I'm standing at that same old place
The January wind blows a breeze in my face
I think I see a flash of wedding gown
billowing up 'cause it's a long way down

Well it's alright, it's gonna be over soon
You worked your spirit till you had to stop
For you I built a little stairway to the moon
You followed me up to the very top
just to jump

I'm gonna race you to the ground
(I wish I had a love like that)
(I with I had a life like that)
I'm gonna save you somehow
(I wish I could be brave like that)
(I wish you could be saved like that)
I don't move at all, I just watch you fall
You wave up as I grab my hair and I scream

Well it's alright, it's gonna be over soon
You worked your love until you had to stop
For you I built a little stairway to the moon
You followed me up to the very top
just to jump

Well it's alright, it's gonna be over soon
We worked our love until we had to stop
For you I built a little stairway to the moon
You followed me up to the very top
just to jump
