Wilds Most Outer

(To “Land Down Under” by Men at Work)



Traveling in a homespun spaceship

To a quantum moon around six places

I met a strange Nomai, she made me nervous

Talking 'bout the Eye of the Universe


And she asked, “Are you bound for the Wilds most Outer

With your signalscope and Little Scouter?

Can't you feel the supernova's power?

You'd better learn; you'd better not cower.”


Jettin' round under Brittle Hollow

These falling bridges are tough to swallow

Which way to the South Observatory?

Or should I just sit by the fire and tell my story?


You know that I'm bound for the Wilds most Outer

With my signalscope and Little Scouter?

Can't you feel the supernova's power?

You'd better learn; you'd better not cower.


Exploring the core of Dark Bramble

Heard an angler's roar and had to scramble

Endless life—this is how I spend it

But I won't rest until the cycle's ended.


Because... I'm bound for the Wilds most Outer

With my signalscope and Little Scouter

Can't you feel the supernova's power?

You'd better learn; you'd better not cower.


We're all bound for the Wilds Most Outer

With our knowledge from the Quantum Tower

Can't you feel the supernova's power?

You'd better learn; you'd better not cower.
