Mission (A World Record)

Lyrics

This is Yreffej Ennyl calling you from planet Earth
 For many days we travelled from a distant place and time
 To reach a place they call the planet Earth
 There was to be a celebration
 On the Mission of the Sacred Heart
 The planet Earth from way up there is beautiful and blue
 And floating softly through a rainbow
 But when you touch down, things look different here
 At the Mission of the Sacred Heart
 Watching all the days roll by
 Who are you and who am I?
 ♪
 How's life on Earth?
 ♪
 (Living on the Earth, living on the Earth
 Living on the Earth, living on the Earth)
 When all the stars above lay icy fingers down on me
 (Living on the Earth, living on the Earth
 Living on the Earth, living on the Earth)
 On a dirty, worn-out sidewalk sits a mother with a baby
 In her vale of tears she sees no rainbow
 And someone's singin' from a window
 In the Mission of the Sacred Heart
 ♪
 Watching all the days roll by
 Who are you and who am I?
 ♪
 How's life on Earth?
 ♪
 (Living on the Earth, living on the Earth
 Living on the Earth, living on the Earth)
 And when the stars above lay icy fingers down on me
 (Living on the Earth, living on the Earth
 Living on the Earth, living on the Earth)
 There's a building on a corner, in a city, in a land
 On a place they call the planet Earth
 My orders are to sit here and watch the world go by
 At the Mission of the Sacred Heart
 Watching all the days roll by
 Who are you and who am I?
 Watching all the days roll by
 Who are you and who am I?
 ♪
 How's life on Earth?
 
 What is it worth?
