Lighten Up Now
The Curmudgeons
A pop music starry-eyed trip at incredible rates! So sit back, tune up your kazoos, take a good listen, and of course... lighten up now! Sitting in with Rich and Jack are David Gomez offering up some choice guitar flourishes and David Thomas bringing it on with the drums.

Lighten Up Now
Light up your face, gimme the nod
Think of a place where no one has trod
Ain't no place like space, our getaway home
We'll find us a gale to give us a bump
Giggle and wail, go thumpity thump
Let's sail along the silvery foam
[chorus]
We're takin' a ship to an outer space isle
where everything's hip, where the aliens smile
A starry-eyed trip at incredible rates (oh yeah)
Lighten up now, your sunbeam awaits
[break]
[chorus]
Lighten the load, baggage adrift
We caught the next dimensional rift
We're in the groove between our temporal lobes
Frequently flying high as the night
Living and dying way outta sight
Who needs the warmth of a changing globe?
[chorus]
