Take Off for Science

Testo

[Verse 1] You set the little rover down Beside the jars of copper wire A paper moon above the sink A matchbox engine, small but bright [Pre-Chorus] We asked the question, watched it spin A dozen tries, then one got in [Chorus] Take off for science, up we go Past the paper planets that we made at home Thank you for the wonder, thank you for the try For every curious question reaching for the sky [Verse 2] You drew the route in blue ink lines And named the crater after Sue The launch was crooked, wheels came loose We taped them up and tried it new [Pre-Chorus] We kept the notes, we changed the plan The best discovery began with “can?” [Chorus] Take off for science, up we go Past the paper planets that we made at home Thank you for the wonder, thank you for the try For every curious question reaching for the sky [Bridge] For patient hands and brave ideas For showing us what we can learn The little rocket leaves the table And every mind begins to turn [Final Chorus] Take off for science, up we go Past the paper planets that we made at home Thank you for the wonder, thank you for the try For every curious question reaching for the sky Take off for science, here we fly Thank you for the spark that makes us ask why
