"Born in the Milky Way"
lyrics by Benjamin Newman

/ A - D A / / / /

Born on a planet of a G-type sun,
We thought we were the only ones.
Set out searching for another star,
We never thought that we could come this far.

	Born in the Milky Way
	I was born in the Milky Way
	Born in the Milky Way
	I was born in the Milky Way

I'm no spacer, I was born on a farm,
Tucked in the elbow of the spiral arm.
Out on the rim, or down in the core,
Gotta see what our galaxy has got in store.

	Born in the Milky Way
	I was born in the Milky Way
	Born in the Milky Way
	I was born in the Milky Way

Set out flying in a ramjet ship,
Got me a ticket for a one-way trip.
Long time going and a long time gone,
But deep-space darkness was my home all along.

We've made friends around a thousand suns,
Imagine us thinking we're the only ones.
Now we know that we're not alone,
I still wonder how we're ever gonna get home.

	Born in the Milky Way
	I was born in the Milky Way
	Born in the Milky Way
	I'm a ramjet racer in the Milky Way

	Born in the Milky Way
	I was born in the Milky Way
	Born in the Milky Way
	I'm a spaced-out spacer in the Milky Way
