Point Me at the Sky lyrics

[Verse 1: David Gilmour]
Hey Eugene, this is Henry McClean
And I've finished my beautiful flying machine
And I'm ringing to say that I'm leaving and maybe
You'd like to fly with me and hide with me, baby
Isn't it strange how little we change?
Isn't it sad, we're insane?
Playing the games that we know end in tears
The games we've been playing for thousands and thousands
And thousands and…

[Pre-Chorus 1: Roger Waters]
Jumped into his cosmic flyer
Pulled his plastic collar higher
Light the fuse and stand right back
He cried, “This is my last goodbye”

[Chorus: David Gilmour & Richard Wright]
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Point me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Point me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly

[Verse 2: David Gilmour]
And if you survive till two thousand and five
I hope you're exceedingly thin
For if you are stout you will have to breathe out
While the people around you breathe in, breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in…
[Pre-Chorus 2: Roger Waters]
People pressing on my sides
Is something that I hate
And so is sitting down to eat
With only little capsules on my plate

[Chorus: David Gilmour & Richard Wright]
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Point me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Point me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly

[Outro: Roger Waters]
And all we've got to say to you is goodbye!
Time gone by in the city when you whine, it's goodbye!
You’re bringin’ Eugene, nobody scream, a goodbye!
We can hang the pilot away, it’s goodbye!
Time has long gone, goodbye!
It’s your last chance, c’mon, say goodbye!
Clang, clang, clang, clang, it’s a goodbye!
The time, it’s flying by, it’s a goodbye!
Crash, crash, crash, crash, a goodbye!
Crash, crash, crash, crash, a goodbye!
Crash, crash, crash, crash, goodbye!
Goodbye!
It’s a goodbye!
Crash, crash, crash, crash, goodbye!
Crash, crash, crash, crash, goodbye!
