O.P.M. (Outer Planetary Motion)
Art & Lyrics
I like to write about real-life experiences and subject matter that others may relate to, but every song does not have to be serious. Sometimes you sit down to write a song when you are in a silly mood. An idea for a song can come to you like a bolt of lightning, and other times it can feel like giving birth to a Volkswagen or passing a kidney stone. You start down a path with no idea where it will take you. This was a song with no road map that led to a journey far out of this world. Happy accidents are cool. Bonus: Who doesn't like a pretty space girl?
Oh.... and I love my wife.
Lyrics:
O.P.M. (Outer Planetary Motion) Words & music JRRothrock
While in retrograde space flight…in Quadrant 33…
We suffered total shutdown of all systems violently.
Nervous systems neutralized by gas with sweet aroma.
Suspended animation…crew slipping into coma…
Ship over-taken… boarded by alien life unknown…
Slowly regained consciousness on planet… far from home.
Being held against our will. Conditions is severe.
Life-forms in primitive ritual… as vision starts to clear.
Observe most beautiful creatures… that I have ever seen.
A female species, sensual… dancing sexually.
An Alpha Male… may be their King… did not detect before.
Sits on a stone, some kind of throne… applauds and asks for more.
(Their King: “Bummmm-bummm-bummm…bummm-bummm-bummm…”)
My eyes… my ears… my body… My heart… my will… my soul…
Vibrations taking over… My thoughts, in a black hole.
Hypnotizing, mesmerizing… their bodies dance and sway.
Don’t want to watch… losing control… but cannot look away!
*******************************************************************
They’re dancing over to us now. There’s one all over me!
It’s too much! Pain is pleasure! Can feel… but cannot see!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Orgasmic pleasure… ecstasy…involuntary twitch…
The rhythms… the sensations… have reached a fevered pitch!
Helpless, total submission… My demise is clear!
I cannot stop! My eardrums pop! There’s no way out of here!!!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The fullness of the body… the roundness of the orbs…
My cells begin mutation… and slowly I’m absorbed!
Have lost genetic makeup… as human, I am done!
Full merger with this creature… WE ARE, FOREVER, ONE!
…this will be my final transmission…
…please tell my wife… I love…….
(…oooh… ahhh… …oooh… ahhh… …oooh… ahhh…)
