On Our Way to Jupiter

Story Behind The Song

I wanted to write a song about just driving... to places unknown, or places I'd never been to before. An adventure of sorts. Imagine the sun is shining, a full tank of fuel and the wind blowing in your hair. Upgrade that to more of a space age scenario, and this is what I ended up with.

Song Description

Imagine travelling at the speed of light... or faster! Now just imagine that by some freak of fate YOU got enlisted in the United States SECRET SPACE PROGRAM, and sent on a recon mission to Jupiter.

"On Our Way to Jupiter"

Verse 1:
Popped like a cork comin' straight outta NASA
and I must be pullin' 30 G's
There's a SECRET SPACE PROGRAM in the state of Nevada
and it's hidden under rocks & some trees

Chorus:
I'm goin' 40 hundred million miles away
to visit Jupiter and it's moons
and it's only gonna take about an hour or two
(I plan on gettin' there at just about noon)

So ya better grab on to Uranus
we're on our way to Jupiter!
The sun is shinin' and the tunes are blastin'!
Steady cruisin' with a HYPER-DRIVE
gonna check out the sites as soon as we arrive
I'm gonna post cool pictures for the Facebook masses...
It's a NATURAL HIGH!

Verse 2:
Far-out galaxies as far as you can see
Makes me hungry for a Milky Way Bar
Trips were never this fun as a kid...
got me wishin' on a falling star!

Chorus:
I'm goin' 40 hundred million miles away
to visit Jupiter and it's moons
and it's only gonna take about an hour or two
(I plan on gettin' there at just about noon)

So ya better grab on to Uranus
we're on our way to Jupiter!
The sun is shinin' and the tunes are blastin'!
Steady cruisin' with a HYPER-DRIVE
gonna check out the sites as soon as we arrive
I'm gonna post cool pictures for the Facebook masses...
It's a NATURAL HIGH!

Bridge/guitar solo


So ya better grab on to Uranus
we're on our way to Jupiter!
The sun is shinin' and the tunes are blastin'!
Steady cruisin' with a HYPER-DRIVE
gonna check out the sites as soon as we arrive
I'm gonna post cool pictures for the Facebook masses...
It's a NATURAL HIGH!
