Downy Woodpecker, Edward Glen, Isaiah Z Johnson - Makeshift Spaceship

Baby, don't pull up the anchor
I ain't had time to look
'Cause there's words in the lights of the city
But they don't stay put like a book

Baby, just wait for a moment
I'm trying to hear what they say
'Cause somewhere far, far below us
Someone's talking 'bout leaving L.A.

In a moment, I'll be up over the hill
But right now, when the air is so still
Oh, I gotta hold on
We're flying to close to the moon

'Cause I got a makeshift spaceship that I made in my basement
And I want you to come along
And we'll escape this place and go meteor chasin'
And I won't ever do you wrong, I won't ever, ever do you wrong

Baby, just give me a second
I know there's a word for this smell
If all that's below us is burning,
Then surely this place could be Hell

Baby, I know you've been patient,
But a feeling has crept in my chest
Maybe we're all little swallows
Maybe this place is our nest

In a moment we'll soar away
But come here and look at this place
I gotta hold on
Hold on
We're flying too close to the moon

'Cause I got a makeshift spaceship that I made in my basement
And I want you to come along
And we'll escape this place and we'll make love weightless
And I won't ever do you wrong
No, I won't ever, ever do you wrong
'Cause I got a makeshift spaceship that I made in my basement
And I want you to come along
I'll give you Saturn's ring and you won't worry 'bout a thing and
I won't ever do you wrong
No, I won't ever, ever do you wrong

We're flying too close to the moon
'Cause I got a makeshift spaceship that I made in my basement
And I want you to come along
We'll go to Jupiter's storm and your arms will keep me warm and
I won't ever do you wrong
No, I won't ever, ever do you wrong
'Cause I got a makeshift spaceship that I made in my basement
And I want you to come along
Our shouts of joy the only sounds in the void and
I won't ever do you wrong
No, I won't ever, ever do you wrong
'Cause I got a makeshift spaceship that I made in my basement
And I want you to come along
We're gonna get married like Pluto and Charon
And I won't ever do you wrong
No, I won't ever, ever do you wrong

And I can't find our house
And I don't know why
But when I look at you I know
It's 'cause I'm at home in the sky
