(Verse 1)
Out on the edge of the Milky Way’s glow,
Lived a billionaire with a heart turned to stone.
Forty billion stars in his name,
But in the cosmic dust, they just faded away.
(Chorus)
He lost his love, his kids, his dreams,
In the black hole where his heart used to be.
A spaceship crashed, a fortune gone,
Now he’s singing this lonesome interstellar song.
(Verse 2)
He built his dreams on Martian sands,
A titan’s castle in the stars’ expanse.
But what’s a kingdom with no queen or heir?
Just a lonely throne in the cold, silent air.
(Chorus)
He lost his love, his kids, his dreams,
In the black hole where his heart used to be.
A spaceship crashed, a fortune gone,
Now he’s singing this lonesome interstellar song.
(Bridge)
Under the glow of a distant sun,
He wonders what he’s really won.
Forty billion stars don’t shine,
Like the love he lost in another time.
(Verse 3)
In the taverns of a spaceport town,
He drinks to memories that swirl around.
A family photo, a fading trace,
Of the life that vanished in space.
(Chorus)
He lost his love, his kids, his dreams,
In the black hole where his heart used to be.
A spaceship crashed, a fortune gone,
Now he’s singing this lonesome interstellar song.
(Outro)
So here’s to the man with everything,
Whose tears are hidden beneath his wings.
In the silence of space, he’s left to roam,
A billionaire wandering far from home.
I think that lesson definitely applies to us average folks. But the bigger lesson here is to not trust billionaires. You would have to be a special kind of asshole to reach the status of a billionaire
I really wish people would stop going on about that. There are plenty of things you can legitimately criticize Musk for. The Starship program is not one of those.
Yea it’s really infuriating. I am a huge space fan in general, and when I see people making negative comments about starship blowing up it just frames them as unintelligent or unaware of how effective spacexs engineering processes are.
Build, fail, repeat. All of those steps are on purpose.
That’s not actually a country song, but I think maybe someone should blow Elon’s nose and then blow his mind. A massive brain aneurism would only benefit the world.
(Verse 1) Out here on the edge of the galaxy’s arm, In my rusted spaceship, away from the farm. I’m missing that old Earth, its green and its blue, But the stars out here sparkle like morning dew.
(Chorus) I’ve got stars in my whiskey, and tears in my eye, Drifting through the cosmos, under the infinite sky. Missing my home, where the red rivers flow, Out here in the stars, with nowhere to go.
(Verse 2) I dance with comets, race with the moon, Sing to the void, out of tune. I dream of cornfields and that sweet country song, But the universe is vast, and the nights are long.
(Chorus) Stars in my whiskey, a heart full of ache, Wandering the heavens, for my old love’s sake. Under the glow of the distant sun’s light, I’m a space cowboy, lost in the night.
(Bridge) Met a Martian girl with eyes like fire, She mended my heart, filled me with desire. But Earth’s sweet memories, they call me back, To the old wooden porch, the long dirt track.
(Chorus) With stars in my whiskey, and dreams in my head, I think of Earth as I float in my bed. The galaxy’s wide, but my heart’s still there, In the sweet country air, without a care.
(Outro) So I’ll keep drifting, with my space-bound blues, Chasing the horizon, in my rocket shoes. But no matter how far, or where I roam, My country heart still calls for home.
