When you wake up with your panda eyes
You rise and greet the stars
Every effort is required now
To focus in on Mars
Is it only a weekday?
How did I travel home?
Did I get there with my friends?
Or did I make it through the cosmos alone?
When you wake up with your panda eyes
And you’re full of soft marshmallow
Try to mobilise until you find
Your head’s stuck to the pillow
And you try to remember
But your mind is a mess
Staring out to Venus
You don’t want to go to work any less
And sunlight is so unnerving
When you’re observing the stars
The moon spins and a full day beckons
But you stay right where you are
And you feel ashamed for the first time (a-ha)
What were you saying all of last night (a-ha)
You say it again, that’s the last time (a-ha)
In the space ship with your panda eyes
See, you’ve aged a million years
The night before is returning fast
To solidify your fears
Even though there is silence
Your ears make a sound
Your new years resolution
Is to try and keep your feet on the ground
The earth calls but you don’t answer
You just don’t feel like it yet
The one thing you feel like doing
Is returning back to your bed
And sunlight is so unnerving
As you watch home disappear
The world turns as you draw closer
Only now does it all become clear
Panda eyes
Panda eyes
Panda eyes
Panda eyes
