Desdemona's building a rocket ship
Desdemona's going away
Desdemona's building a rocket ship
Blasting off today

She's got a pa*sion for cookies, a crew full of rookies
It's gonna be a hell of a blow
Desdemona's building a rocket ship
And I've got to go

A woman on a mission, quite familiar with quasars
Her heart is in the kitchen but her soul is in the stars
Crystal clear on logic but short on expertise
This is a very ancient puzzle, she feels herself a piece

Desdemona's building a rocket ship
Desdemona's going away
Desdemona's building a rocket ship
Blasting off today

She's got a pa*sion for cookies, a crew full of rookies
It's gonna be a hell of a blow
Desdemona's building a rocket ship
Guess, I've got to go

She was down in Puerto Rico, doin' a scientist
True, he was no geek though, she was taken with his kiss
It was under a giant telescope, where she heard the calling voice
It came screaming through the light years, she never had a choice

Pleiads callin' her home
Seven sisters, she hears her distant sisters
Pleiads callin' me home
Seven sisters, she hears her seven sisters

Pleiads callin' her home
Seven sisters, she hears her distant sisters
Pleiads callin' me home
Seven sisters, she hears her seven sisters

A woman on a mission, quite familiar with quasars
Her heart is in the kitchen but her soul is in the stars
Her engines fuel with logic and navigation expertise
It's very distant puzzle, she's gonna get her piece

Desdemona's building a rocket ship
Desdemona's going away
Desdemona's building a rocket ship
Blasting off today

She's got a pa*sion for cookies, a crew full of rookies
It's gonna be a hell of a blow
Desdemona's building a rocket ship
I've just got to go

Seven sisters, she hears her distant sisters
Seven sisters, she hears her seven sisters

Pleiads callin' her home
Seven sisters, she hears her distant sisters
Pleiads callin' me home
Seven sisters, she hears her Seven sisters

Pleiads callin' her home
Seven sisters, she hears her distant sisters
Pleiads callin' me home
Seven sisters, she hears her distant sisters
