The sun comes out the moon goes in
No longer where we need it
One minute, red nails scratching along nylon
Next minute, trace her little eyebrow, the sun comes in
The moon goes in, no longer where we need them


Wives in orbit
Wives in orbit
Wives in orbit
Wives in orbit
Poetry is depressing me, depressing me, depressing me
Appropriating destiny, destiny, destiny
Wanting to grow up, wanting to get hooked up
Wanting to drink family-sized
Wives in orbit (wives in orbit)
Wives in orbit (wives in orbit)
Wives in orbit (wives in orbit)
Orbit, orbit, orbit, orbit (wives in orbit)
Going 'round and looking down
Orbits through the tops of heads
Beams and forces have battered them off courses
Implements of torture, build the memory
Satellites and flying guns, stations and platforms
Satellites and flying guns, stations and platforms
And launch-launching pads, launch-launch-launching pads
What a mess, oh what a mess
What a mess, oh what a mess
What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit)
What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit)
What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit)
What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit)
What a mess, oh what a mess, oh what a mess
Oh what a mess, oh what a mess  oh what a mess, oh what a mess...

Lyrics

The sun comes out the moon goes in No longer where we need it One minute, red nails scratching along nylon Next minute, trace her little eyebrow, the sun comes in The moon goes in, no longer where we need them

Wives in orbit Wives in orbit Wives in orbit Wives in orbit

Poetry is depressing me, depressing me, depressing me Appropriating destiny, destiny, destiny Wanting to grow up, wanting to get hooked up Wanting to drink family-sized

Wives in orbit (wives in orbit) Wives in orbit (wives in orbit) Wives in orbit (wives in orbit) Orbit, orbit, orbit, orbit (wives in orbit)

Going 'round and looking down Orbits through the tops of heads Beams and forces have battered them off courses Implements of torture, build the memory Satellites and flying guns, stations and platforms Satellites and flying guns, stations and platforms And launch-launching pads, launch-launch-launching pads

What a mess, oh what a mess What a mess, oh what a mess What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit) What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit) What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit) What a mess, oh what a mess (wives in orbit) What a mess, oh what a mess, oh what a mess Oh what a mess, oh what a mess oh what a mess, oh what a mess...
