I’ve been waiting, (Verse A)
For some time,
But now this world has passed me by,
There are people I do adore,
But they don’t know me anymore.
Cause I’m the space-monkey,
Going, going, gone.
Don’t forget me but carry on, (Chorus A)
Space-Monkey,
In orbit I go,
Straight into the unknown,
Space-Monkey
There was a time,
So long ago, (Verse B)
You set the fire in my soul,
But that was then,
This is now,
I couldn’t even tell you how I’m the,
Space-Monkey,
Going, going, gone.
Don’t forget me but carry on, (Chorus B)
Space-Monkey,
In orbit I go,
Straight into the unknown,
Space-Monkey, Space-Monkey.
Sweetly melancholy bedroom pop is rarely as actually vulnerable and personal as it is in this Australian artist's hands. Bandcamp New & Notable Nov 21, 2018
