Witnesses' Waltz Too
Words by Ellen Kranzer
To the Tune of: Witnesses' Waltz by Leslie Fish
Lift off is scheduled for four in the morn.
We get up to watch it two hours before dawn.
The weather is foul; there is no reprieve.
We wake up the next day to watch the ship leave.
Chorus:
Twelve thousand, half million, million or more
Watching TV from the living room floor.
NASA Select brings the shuttle to you.
Your friends and your neighbors are watching it too.
After the workday we rush back to see
What NASA will show us upon the TV.
Perhaps they'll explain it, perhaps they will not.
The narration is poor, but we sure like the plot.
CHORUS
The shuttle gleams white as it flies in the light,
Then things go black as it slips into night.
The astronauts work on, the screen image shifts.
The days last for hours as the space shuttle drifts.
CHORUS
Soon the time comes for that space ship to land.
We pick up the remote to watch it first hand.
Though we can't be there, we still want to see.
We watch 'til the landing's a fait accompli.
CHORUS
