Tack My Name (Live)
I hear the astronomers are raising money
Peddling real estate light years far
Send in cash, they'll change the registry
Tack your name on a distant star
Well, choose me a star somewhere in the midrange
Not too dim and not too bright
One with planets of some ecology
Let my name give someone light
Years from now when I'm long underground
Some explorer will come and see
Lots of land for pioneer settlers
Under a sun named after me
Well, send me your refugees, oddballs, malcontents
Those that governments throw away
They'll soon grow to be poets and singers
With my namesake to light their way
Maybe my ghost will wander among them
Doing my share to keep them free
There'll be no tyrants, slaves, or go-alongs
Under a sun named after me
I hear the astronomers are peddling star names
Tell me who and where they are
I won't need an earthly monument
With my name on a rising star!
Yeah
Peddling real estate light years far
Send in cash, they'll change the registry
Tack your name on a distant star
Well, choose me a star somewhere in the midrange
Not too dim and not too bright
One with planets of some ecology
Let my name give someone light
Years from now when I'm long underground
Some explorer will come and see
Lots of land for pioneer settlers
Under a sun named after me
Well, send me your refugees, oddballs, malcontents
Those that governments throw away
They'll soon grow to be poets and singers
With my namesake to light their way
Maybe my ghost will wander among them
Doing my share to keep them free
There'll be no tyrants, slaves, or go-alongs
Under a sun named after me
I hear the astronomers are peddling star names
Tell me who and where they are
I won't need an earthly monument
With my name on a rising star!
Yeah
