This song couldn't possibly kick any more ass. I'm serious.
It could try, but I doubt it could. There's simply no more
ass to kick.
It's a fairly slow tempo,changing a little bit during the
harmonica and guitar solos, but that doesn't detract from
the total ass-whoopin this song gives you. I've given the
chord names just for the hell of it.
By the way, you have to search the CD to find the song.
It's not on the tape. It's song #21 starting at precisely
-5:04 minutes. I go to 20 and fast-forward 2:30. It's well
worth it. Enjoy.
(acoustic guitar)

Different faces, different names.
Peculiar people just the same.
We are brothers in our hearts.
So we travelled far away,
Another galaxy to play,
Up in space we never part.

Maybe own a ranch on Mars.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhh.
{Rhythm figure 2}
Come in, come in, mission control,
Give us guidance for our souls,
With eyes that scan the universe.
No more talking time to land,
You give me hope, you understand.
Our future lies beyond this Earth.
