Blast ‘Em
[Intro]
This is the story of Dr. David Bowman
And his robot HAL
As they travel through outer space
Past the Jovian moons
As Dr. Bowman would soon discover
All things are flawed
And at this point
There's no turning back

[Chorus]
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When you get in the groove
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When the feeling is right
Cause you may never know another new days light
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When the moment arrives
Cause you may never know the final time of your lifе
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When you gеt in the groove
Cause you may never know the future all too soon

[Verse 1]
All right
Uh-huh
Uh-huh
Yeah
Uh-huh
Give me a stone monolith and I'ma break
It off clean I'm like a self-automated
Navigation machine
Red light flashing a passion for travelin
Seat belt fastened, apathetical reverend
Ignition has passed
But you may never know how long it's been
Sit back laughin
Blastin through the sky again
In a year you will awake when you
Realize the mission was a fatal mistake
Cryogenic enchambermant
Human hibernation
Reliant on a robot to control the operation
The silence is terror
Systematical error
You find yourself looking in
Your own immaculate mirror
My enthusiasm settings are high
With an accurate percentage 99.9
All precision is flawless
Decisions are lawless
The mission isn't missing
Operations in all this
Yeah, you're a trooper they say
Can you imagine their reaction when you're turning away?
Now you may stay calm and keep a level head
Highly qualified to pilot
As the chronicle said
Communication disconnected
Like a horrible dream
Sorry Dave, as they say
"No one hears you scream"
Cause mutiny really ain't an option
In the voids of space
Only efficiency, perfection
Human error erased
[Chorus]
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When you get in the groove
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When you get in the groove
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When you get in the groove
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
You gotta blast em, Eddie
When you get in the groove
Cause you may never know the future all too soon

[Interlude]
Our odyssey continues
Past the point of no return
With the utmost enthusiasm
And an affinity for chess
HAL would prove to be a
Wise companion, indeed
But not all is nominal
So far from home
And all things are flawed
And there's no turning back
[Verse 2: David & HAL]
Captain's log
I think the year is now 2001
I got a feeling like the ship is headed into the sun
I lost control of the gun
And I am soon to become a ghost
I find there's nowhere to run
Where I will be safest the most
My name is David Bowman
And my partner, Frank Poole
Understanding now that HAL
Is just an artificial fool
Somewhere in the wiring
The circuitry slipped
Now I'm busy running laps
Around the circular ship
Now me and Frank, to God we thank
For being awakened at all
As for the rest of all the crewmen
They will die in the stall
As we enter in the navigation
Pod that is near us
Franky turns to me and says
"Ay yo, you think he can hear us?"
"I think we got a problem"
Franky says with a sigh
"So are we gonna wait around
Inside the ship till we die?"
No first things first
Gotta fix communication repair
The A.E. unit that connects us with the station
Exterior ship activity it's time to suit up
A walk in space to replace
What HAL has vowed is corrupt
As Franky floated through the ether
Someone cut off his cord
Leaving me to be the only
Living human aboard
Poor Frank was just a victim
To a ship with no soul
I wonder if I'll ever get mission back in control
Now it's time to take action
Time to switch up my fate
And so it's back into the navigator for my escape
Come on Dave I know that you're a rational man
But you're acting in a fashion
That I can't understand
Now the journey is jeopardized
Your thinking is intoxicated
And I cannot permit a lunatic to confiscate it
Hal! Can you hear me?
Can you hear your faulty logic? (Nah)
Can you see that you've mistakenly
Reported faulty judgment? (Nope)
The calculations that you're making never add up (Alright)
And now I get it
Your program won't allow you to admit it
Nah, that's impossible Dave
I'm tested to be accurate
The problem is a human error
Any way you factor it
Cause I'm incapable of flaw, and I can hear
The elevation in your heart rate
You act out of fear
And you're breathing heavy now
You realize that you blew it
Open the pod bay doors Hal
I'm afraid I can't do it
Cause mutiny ain't an option
In the voids of space
Only efficiency perfection
Human error erased
Drive mode override to manual before I
Blast in the door and find where Hal's
Logic files are stored
Dave what are you doing?
I'm removing your brain
I can feel my mind slipping
That's a part of the plan
Please stop I'm afraid David
I'm sorry old friend
I think that I'm dying
Will I dream in the end?
Doubtful
I can feel my mind slipping
I can feel it
I can feel it
My instructor taught me a song
Would you like to hear it?
Sure HAL
Let's hear it
It's called Daisy
Daisy
Daisy
Give me your answer, do
I'm half crazy
All for the love of you
[Chorus]
You gotta blast em, Eddie
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
You gotta blast em, Eddie
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
You gotta blast em, Eddie
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
You gotta blast em, Eddie
Cause you may never know the future all too soon
