Cosmic Thrust
Bard of Blyth Apr 22
Ain’t seen you in ages
Let’s get married in vegas
Lunar phases, lunar ******
Space **** with a built in dongle
Stars at night super fast internet
Watch your favourite movie
Fastened onto a turbojet
Pornstars in your eyes
Scarlett Skies
Supermassive slack hole explicit
I’m just giving you sound bites, apéritif
Cosmic ****** if you must
Hot to the touch I’m growing up
While you’re looking down gasping
Hands clasping, rocket launch
Houston this missile is staunch
Better turn the lights off
Things are about to get ******.

So is it written in the stars?
Or do I need to text an explanation?
Your eyes are reflecting the light
Stars twinkling so bright

So now you’re full of rocket fuel
Engines ready isn’t ******* cool?
Deep space walking, space dazzle
Starship cougar from Newcastle
Tell me all your secrets
The ones that cause you hassle
Those stockings look nice
Northern tights
Blasting them off into unknown heights
Outside the atmosphere air is light
Unidentified arousal phenomena
Explore her Andromeda
The Milky Way sprayed on her front
I must be blunt, space passport scan
Tells star bureau I’m an OG spaceman
Space duty frees large Toblerone
Radiation sickness and no suntan
Cosmic ****** if you must
Light speed chat up lines
In stardust I’m gonna draw you signs
Baby can’t get enough of my ***
So I showed her in IMAX
Double ***** cokes with treble ******
Jelly legs.

So is it written in the stars?
Or do I need to text an explanation?
Your eyes are reflecting the light
Stars twinkling so bright
Can we just take a moment
To admire the cosmos
With a cosmo
Can we just take a moment
To admire the cosmos
With a cosmo.

Reach for the Stars
Bard of Blyth Apr 22
Couldn’t get your taste out of my mouth
My tongue talks about you all the time now
Last night I just can’t contemplate
Just how you bounce, bounce, bounce up on me babe.

So can’t you wave me goodbye on the launchpad?
Can’t you wave me goodbye on the launchpad?

Yeah you could sell your story
Tell all interview
Do a podcast and be in the news
Sell your story
Tell all interview
So can’t you wave me goodbye?
Reach for the stars
Reach for the stars

Was it the cosmo’s that had you dizzy?
Thinking spaceman oh what a divvy
And now your phone has blown up now
Remember the night sky is different in the south.

So can’t you wave me goodbye on the launchpad?
Can’t you wave me goodbye on the launchpad?

Yeah you could sell your story
Tell all interview
Do a podcast and be in the news
Sell your story
Tell all interview
So can’t you wave me goodbye?

Our secrets safe in space
No one can hear the gossip
In the vacuum of space
Nothing called profit
Our secrets safe in space
No one can hear the gossip
The vacuum of space
Nothing called profit
Reach for the stars
Reach for the stars
Reach for the stars

Our secrets safe in space
No one can hear the gossip

No one can hear the gossip

Reach for the stars

Carry On
Bard of Blyth Apr 22
Alarms go we’ve got a situation
Pod 1 is dead
Pod 2 is dead
Pod 3 is…
Alarms go this is no simulation
Oxygen in red
Oxygen in red
Oxygen!

Captains log I’ve lost my whole crew
May they rest in peace
I must carry on our mission alone
A promise i’ll keep
Tell their loved ones they were brave
They died at peace in their sleep
Tell their loved ones they died in space
Please do not weep.

I must carry on
complete the mission
I must carry on
For the good of mankind
I must carry on
In this steel prison
I wish I could turn back time and rewind.

Captains log the last survivor of this ship
Going solo for the rest of this trip
I’m going to do this for my comrades
A promise I must keep
Tell their loved ones they were brave
They died at peace in their sleep
Tell their loved ones they died in space
Please do not weep.

I must carry on
complete the mission
I must carry on
For the good of mankind
I must carry on
In this steel prison
I wish I could turn back time and rewind.

Gods speed at near the speed of light
You’ll never age nor feel no pain
You’ll reign long and prosper
No chains you’re free.

Believing
Bard of Blyth Apr 22
On the merry go round again friend
Meal deals for lunch
Carbs for dinner
Send help the summers coming
Everybody wants to be thinner
Here I am in my boxer shorts
And socks of course
Posing in the mirror
Rubbing baby oil on my chest
Yes look how I glimmer
The lights always been poor in my room
Tonight it seems to be dimmer
Summer daylight savings gloom
And now I’m craving pints and bbq food
I’m in the mood for something carcinogenic
Remember the pandemic reading Balzac?
Come on wash your hands on my *******.

What you want to achieve?
Anything because I believe
Everybody’s got a voice in their head
Mines here to talk you into my bed

I had my sheets hanging out on the line
They smell fine hey it’s summer time
Sun dried black holes spread on my toast
I’m dilating time unlike most
Pull up a chair baby I can be your host
Cherry red lips and mint chocolate chip eyes
Put you on a cone and sell you at a price
It’s called supply and demand
Not demand and supply
**** I guess thats why you’re not here aye
Photogenic stretch marks
Got me sending love hearts
I’m in the mood for something carcinogenic
You’re sweet aroma and your melanomas
Baby now it’s finally the time
You’ve got your hands wrapped in mine
Isn’t this sublime in the summertime?
Loving your body because it’s fine.

What you want to achieve?
Anything because I believe
Everybody’s got a voice in their head
Mines here to talk you into my bed
I might as well be dreaming
Because this is heaven
I might as well be dreaming
Because this is me believing.

Get a Grip
Bard of Blyth Apr 21
I’m always looking for some fun
I put so much into you and I’m not talking about ***
It’s an ick for you when I call you ***
So how about I start to be more blunt?
Your anxiety in this society is frightening me
How about some variety?
Your notoriety was your propriety
Now you sit there silently
Flicking through shorts you watch piously
So where’s your vanity?
You’re my certified fantasy
It’s agony watching my majesty in travesty
I’d happily take away your stress rapidly
Candidly I can admit it’s all a tragedy.

I wanna hold on
But I can’t get a grip
Lets put a show on
Give them all a hit
I wanna go long
How ‘bout a landing strip?
You make me so strong
That’s why I’m not gonna quit
I wanna hold on
But I can’t get a grip
Lets put a show on
Give them all a hit

I know sometimes I can be a bit dumb
But when you *** I know your toes go numb
A connection via affection pun
You know how my naughty mind can run
Your anxiety is callously affecting me
You’re panicky and act angrily
I call the cavalry in agony
You are my galaxy a star tapestry
Inside a vacuum covered by a dark canopy
You’re my Cleopatra and I’m Antony
Don’t let Octavian defeat us drastically
I want your amnesty and you sexually
I won’t drop you from the balcony
It’s all a pain let’s come together like gravity.

I wanna hold on
But I can’t get a grip
Lets put a show on
Give them all a hit
I wanna go long
How ‘bout a landing strip?
You make me so strong
That’s why I’m not gonna quit
I wanna hold on
But I can’t get a grip
Lets put a show on
Give them all a hit

In the Depths of Space
Bard of Blyth Apr 22
In the depths of space
Time goes slowly
I get a little lonely
I miss your face
I kind of feel out of place
I’m convinced wholly
That you’ve moved on surely
Oh what a waste.

Captains log I’m feeling blue
Space flight just passing through
The Oort Cloud, interstellar stew
Maybe I could turn back?
Captains log I’m thinking of you
It’s true I don’t know what to do
Maybe I could abandon the crew?
But that would do me no good
I just can’t escape your ghost
You haunt me the most
Whom I gonna call out here?

In the depths of space
Time goes slowly
I get a little lonely
I miss your face

Time doesn’t matter
When you cant flatter
Now that thought cuts like a dagger
I hope that your safe
While I’m stuck here in space
In stasis a heart can still shatter
Space sickness *****
Space sickness ***** *****
The earth is barely a dot
And I ******* miss you a lot
So i can’t view your story
To see what you’ve had for lunch
I can’t even see that pretty face scrunch
I have to use my memory
But my battery is empty
And I always thought it was like a sponge
Maybe I should just go to sleep
Space is desolate when you get deep

In the depths of space
Time goes slowly
I get a little lonely
I miss your face
I kind of feel out of place
I’m convinced wholly
That you’ve moved on surely
Oh what a waste.

Sweet Dreams
Sometimes when I close my eyes all I can see is you
You’re crystal clear but you’re not here
Lustrous, vivid and true
Those slippery serpents that sliver in your ear
They circle round you but girl you mustn’t fear
For I’m here, I got this, I do.

Although it’s hard for you to imagine
My love for you won’t die it will not wilt
Its grown to leviathan vastness
Feeding from the tears you shed in sadness
Although it’s hard for you to imagine
My love for you won’t die it will not wilt
Its grown to leviathan vastness
Feeding from the tears you shed in sadness

It’s my dream
So at best I’ll try to set the scene
So at best I’ll have you in a daydream
So at best I’ll try to set the scene.

Tongues will knot and coil
Our passion oiled
Into the abyss we become embroiled
Sweet dreams
Sweet dreams
Sweet dreams.

The Question
Bard of Blyth Apr 22
I’ll ask you a question
A mention of my own construct
Dumbstruck by the human you are
This question has boundaries
But boundless my concepts
Cut down trees, erase all the nonsense
Make sure I’ve got your full attention
My luck I’ll be testing
Look I’ve got a confession
I don’t know what will be the question.

Hands up if you’re going crazy
Hands up if you want to get involved
Hands up if you’re going crazy
Hands up if you feel like you’ve been absolved
I don’t know what will be the question.

My mouth is sewn shut
Got a head full of stardust
Now shall we all start the session?
Butterflies inside my gut
A cocoon for my construct  
I still don’t know what will be the question.

Hands up if you’re going crazy
Hands up if you want to get involved
Hands up if you’re going crazy
Hands up if you feel like you’ve been absolved
I don’t know what will be the question.

Grey Tracks
Bard of Blyth May 10
Taste freeze
Message pending
Inbox full
Money lending
Pastries
Pleasant ending

****** in my grey tracks
Relax they’re just my Adidas
All day I debate about *******
That’s an anagram now I’m bragging
Am I grabbing your attention?
Are we gonna have ourselves a session?
Close the doors open up your thoughts
Making love is never a chore
Marigolds on I’m up for doing more.

I got taste freeze
My message is pending
The Inbox is full
No more money lending
Pastries
This is my pleasant ending.

Cleanse your soul I’ll clean your soles
I’ll anoint your skin and your holes
Moles and freckles are so special
I’m in bloom ‘cause you’re my flower petal
**** I love that subtle taste of metal
Steaming up you’d think I’m a kettle
Cup of tea no sugar she’s sweet enough
Nothing to add but my spoon and love
Big spoon little spoon cardboard lust.

I got taste freeze
My message is pending
The Inbox is full
No more money lending
Pastries
This is my pleasant ending.

I Spy
Bard of Blyth Apr 21
I’m always teetering on the edge baby
Thirty Six feels like the new Twenty One lately
Do you love me? Or do you hate me?
I’ve got that Pinot Noir and a lit cigar
Im going Cuban in my crisis with a missile
Who you choosing? Tell me in private
I’ll invite it and agitate you a little
Let’s annotate those last lines I scribbled
The wine and cigar are a celebration
The missile is my **** the crisis is agitation
It’s quick wit and the lines seamlessly fit
Its legit I think too much about the pink
The connection I get from making you wet
Sets my mind free unlike the country Tibet

I spy with my minds eye
Something beginning with B
B Cup ******* and blue skies
Blonde beaches and blue eyes
My minds eye envisions you and I
By the sea sipping from plastic straws
Where even ordering our next drink
Feels like a chore
Finding our balance upon these shores.

Hold my hand and I’ll find equilibrium
I could’ve used balance but I chose another synonym
Semantic relation is an example of a hypernym
When I wrote that I felt like a clever clogs
But when I’m with you I feel like a God
That’s a nod to myself I have to applaud
Lord, you know how to try my patience
I patiently wait but you seem to be vacant Chewed and spat out like gum on the pavement
Have I lost my lustre? Am I Blockbuster?
If I am I wanna know who’s Netflix ******
I’m just being paranoid but thoughts flutter
I stutter and wonder grinding my gnashers
Down to the gums like nothing matters.

I spy with my minds eye
Something beginning with B
B Cup ******* and blue skies
Blonde beaches and blue eyes
My minds eye envisions you and I
By the sea sipping from plastic straws
Where even ordering our next drink
Feels like a chore
Finding our balance upon these shores.

Waiting Game
Bard of Blyth Apr 22
Old love thrown out in the dumpster
Forlorn my heart about to rupture
So I gazed up to the stars
I’ve always been a dreamer
I’ll show you all my scars
How each cut drew deeper
Babe you’re a goddess
I’ll sit here in solace
**** this is painful
I just want to feel numb
I won’t be hateful
I’ll wait until you come
Even if that waits forever
Waiting ain’t wasting my time.

Wormhole
Gonna go through the wormhole
Gonna go through the hole
You sadly died many centuries ago
Gonna go through the wormhole
Gonna have to pack up my troubles and go
Gonna sack off this world I don’t know
Time dilation has dealt me a lethal blow
Without you time goes so **** slow.

In theory I’ll see you on the other side
The human race is now another kind
My disappearance made my mother sigh
The world cried and I got declassified
I’m a hero in histories eyes

Gonna go through the vortex
Gonna go without you I’m hopeless
Baby without you time moves like a tortoise
Gonna go through the vortex
According to the experts spacetimes a continuum
It’ll stretch you right out and bring you to ruin
It’s all relative when your a spaceman gone truant
According to the experts spacetimes a continuum.

In theory I’ll see you on the other side
The human race is now another kind
My disappearance made my mother sigh
The world cried and I got declassified
I’m a hero in histories eyes
History I’m gonna have to rewrite
You won’t even know about my lonely life
I’ll never step foot on another flight
In theory I’ll see you on the other side

Gonna go through the wormhole
Gonna go through the hole
Enter it wholly, mind, body and soul
Gonna go through the wormhole

Marooned Five
This spaceship is useless
And your out of this world
Stuck on this godforsaken rock
Marooned five years without my girl
Couldn’t find the fuel to blast off
So I’m sending out a message
In a hope that help will come
And if someone finds my wreckage
They’ll know I loved someone.

Calling planet earth
I’m just a mortal man
Can you please tell my woman
I did all I can
Calling planet earth
Do you believe in love?
Can you please tell my lover
I did all I could
Skimmed the stars
That we saw in the sky
I’ve never seen beauty like her aye.

Space food is tasteless
I got freeze dried heartache
Energy is critical my oxygen is low
Every photo of her is my keepsake
I seen our own sun with its dim glow
If you hear this it’s probably too late
I hope I did you all proud
In centuries you’ll know my fate
Captains log, Large Magellanic Cloud.

Calling planet earth
I’m just a mortal man
Can you please tell my woman
I did all I can
Calling planet earth
Do you believe in love?
Can you please tell my lover
I did all I could
Skimmed the stars
That we saw in the sky
I’ve never seen beauty like her aye.

Aliens
They’ve got all the hardware
They don’t care for footwear
Grey guys with a shiny craft
Their telepathy gives me the creeps
They analysed me for weeks
And asked me how I had crashed
Intergalactic narcotics
Cosmological erotics
Kept me in a state of bliss
They’re from another realm
And now I feel overwhelmed
I don’t think that probe will fit.

Aliens really ******* give me the creeps
Technologically advance but ***** beasts
they like how my skin is silky and pink
Genders mean nothing to them I think.

Somehow my spaceship is fixed
They’ve been busy and quick
I feel like a brand new man
They space ghost me and leave
Hope I don’t have any space transmitted disease
But now I can leave for home yes I can.

Aliens really ******* give me the creeps
Technologically advance but ***** beasts
they like how my skin is silky and pink
Genders mean nothing to them I think.

A Few Bad Days
You look surprised
I know that launch pad is still warm
In pictures digitised
They’ll all like my return to home

Baby I feel like I’ve hit a home run
Time don’t half fly when your having fun
Just kiss me for the camera
I left this world for diaspora didn’t I.

You look surprised by your gaze
It’s been so long since I’ve held you in my arms
But for you it’s only been a few bad days.

Babe if I told you all that I have done
You’d have to medicate until your numb
Just think of what we will do
All of our dreams will come true.

Baby I can’t help but feel ashamed
I’m the only one left out of my comrades
Just raise your glass for them
Three cheers for the memory of men

You look surprised by your gaze
It’s been so long since I’ve held you in my arms
But for you it’s only been a few bad days.

This is another message
I’m sending all my blessings
Put on your Sunday best
Shine your shoes and don’t forget
To keep that bubbly on ice oh
Captains log I’m coming home.

Captains log
Tell my love that I’m on my way
Floating through the ether
I love to say that she’s still eager
When I get back I’ll never leave her
For the record I’m all drowsy from stasis
Your questions will be loquacious
I don’t have time for a pursuit
I’m trying to be gracious
I love you more
Than you’ll ever know
I won’t ever let you go
Captains log I’m coming home
I’m coming home.

Collapsing Black Hole
Remember when we first met?
I can’t forget
A moment seared into my memory
Encrypted humour saved
We peered up into the galaxy
You asked me to remember to come back
For the predicted lunar phase
You asked me to bring you star dust
To harvest the cosmos of its treasures
I said yes I know I must go
My love I’ll harness for your pleasure
Amongst all the pressure
Of a collapsing black hole.

Baby I’m feeling giddy
I can’t contain myself
Look how fast this rocket ship can fly
I cannot lie I almost died
Rest in peace my comrades
Oh when your in my arms I’m gonna cry

I’m on my way
I’m on my way
The speed of light is constant
In my cockpit I feel nauseous
I’m on my way
I’m on my way
Fleeting through the cosmos
To be with the one I love most

My ******* is still killing
Those aliens were so thirsty
We’ll talk about it when I get home
I’m in the zone and all alone
But hopefully not for long
To be with you I’ve seen the unknown

I’m on my way
I’m on my way
The speed of light is constant
In my cockpit I feel nauseous
I’m on my way
I’m on my way
Fleeting through the cosmos
To be with the one I love

Most of us barely go to Europe
I made ice cubes on the moon Europa
Why does the Earth not look familiar?
I’m almost home I’m gonna see you
I’m in the zone I won’t be alone
Coordinates must be wrong though
This isn’t Earth this is another world
I’m coming in way too hot
I’m gonna crash into something hard
I hope there’s an ocean below my feet
To take the impact and cool the heat
I’m finally home but it feels different
I can’t feel you maybe I’m ignorant
Maybe love isn’t constant that can’t be true
I’m almost home I’m gonna see you

I’m on my way
I’m on my way
The speed of light is constant
In my cockpit I feel nauseous
I’m on my way
I’m on my way
Fleeting through the cosmos
To be with the one I love most

I’m almost home I’m gonna see you
I’m in the zone I won’t be alone
Coordinates must be wrong though
This isn’t Earth this is another world
I’m coming in way too hot
I’m gonna crash into something hard
I hope there’s an ocean below my feet
To take the impact and cool the heat
I’m finally home but it feels different
I can’t feel you maybe I’m ignorant
