Lyrics
[Intro]
(Starts raw with solo jazz trumpet blowing a smoky riff, joined by a tight horn section punch. Then heavy LinnDrum pocket, Steinberger bass, Minimoog groove, Prophet-5, and industrial drill layer in.)
(FEMALE LEAD AD-LIB WITH DEEP GROOVE) Oh yeah... feel the heat rising from the mothership kitchen...
(LOW VOICE FEMALE BACKGROUND) SIZZLING... JUICY... WATCH IT STEAM...
[Verse 1]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
Deep inside the mothership biochemical lab
The scientists are working on a revolutionary tab
Cultivating cosmic onions growing giant and green
The strangest planetary fusion that you’ve ever seen
(LOW VOICE BACKGROUND) ONION GLAND... SECRETION OUT OF SPACE...
[Verse 2]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
This giant sizzling onion hits the frying pan heat
The savory smell is drifting all along the starship street
An emotional receptor switch is ready to flip
A golden steam is rising up to capture the ship
(A playful, creepy toy piano riff echoes in the right channel, followed by an industrial drill spin)
[Pre-Chorus]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
Crying a tear in the golden hot steam
Flowing along in a beautiful dream
Melting the world in a vivid red beam
[MELODIC CHORUS (FEMALE HARMONY & ADLIBS)]
SIZZLING ONION GLAND BURNING THE NIGHT!
MAKING THE COLD WORLD SHINE SO BRIGHT!
TURNING THE WRONG INTO THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT!
THE MOTHERSHIP IS THE ONLY SIGHT!
[Verse 3]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
A single sniff of aroma floating into the atmosphere
And every living organism starts to shed a heavy tear
But this is not a sorrowful or painful dismay
It’s a passionate explosion taking defense away
(Vibraslap shake hits right on the snare beat)
[Verse 4]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
The heartless urban judges sitting cold on their bench
They drop their heavy gavels from the powerful stench
They wipe their weeping eyes and let the armor just fall
Stepping down to the floor to answer the call
[Pre-Chorus]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
Crying a tear in the golden hot steam
Flowing along in a beautiful dream
Melting the world in a vivid red beam
[MELODIC CHORUS (FEMALE HARMONY & ADLIBS)]
SIZZLING ONION GLAND BURNING THE NIGHT!
MAKING THE COLD WORLD SHINE SO BRIGHT!
TURNING THE WRONG INTO THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT!
THE MOTHERSHIP IS THE ONLY SIGHT!
[Bridge 1: Industrial & Toy Piano Madness]
(Industrial drill rhythmic pattern with an eerie, fast-paced jazz-funk toy piano solo. Low group chants.)
[LOW VOICE FEMALE CHANT] CHOP IT UP... CHOP IT UP... FRY IT IN THE SPACE HEAT...
[LOW VOICE FEMALE CHANT] FEEL THE MOISTURE RISING TO THE FUNKY BEAT...
[FEMALE LEAD AD-LIB] Oh, look at the cold robot soldiers... they can't stop the tears!
[Verse 5]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
The cold iron soldiers holding mechanical shields
Are weeping on the concrete and the industrial fields
They drop their heavy weapons, throwing hands in the air
Embracing one another with an ultimate care
[Verse 6]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
They step into a rhythm that is heavy and tight
Dancin' through the smoke under the galaxy light
The propaganda perfume is spreading so deep
Waking up the passions that were buried asleep
(Tight syncopated horn section accents fire rapidly)
[Bridge 2: Space-Age Synth Echo Chamber]
(Deep minimalist dub-funk pocket with jazzy bubbling analog delay effects. Extended deep lead ad-libs.)
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
Mmm... it's a delicious propagation... turning this cold, freezing world into one big, beautiful, savory soup... Can you taste the passion? Can you feel the tears running down your face? Don't fight it... just let the grease splatter... HOO!
[Verse 7]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
The sweet smell of the onion and the popping hot oil
Is mixing with the percussion on this terrestrial soil
Turning the frozen planet to a giant hot pot
A delicious grand production that is juicy and hot
[Pre-Chorus]
THICK LAYERED DEEP GROOVE FEMALE LEAD
Crying a tear in the golden hot steam
Flowing along in a beautiful dream
Melting the world in a vivid red beam
[MELODIC CHORUS (FEMALE HARMONY & ADLIBS)]
SIZZLING ONION GLAND BURNING THE NIGHT!
MAKING THE COLD WORLD SHINE SO BRIGHT!
TURNING THE WRONG INTO THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT!
THE MOTHERSHIP IS THE ONLY SIGHT!
[Outro]
(The heavy Aurra-style 113BPM boogie beat and Steinberger bassline continue relentlessly. The industrial drill spins, the toy piano plays soft repeating notes, and the horn section drops brief, tight stabs. The female lead and the low-voice choir fade out together, layered in deep, cosmic echo.)
[THICK LAYERED DEEP LEAD] Weeping and dancin'... sizzling and steamin'... right on the mothership floor...
[LOW VOICE FEMALE HARMONY] THE SOUP IS READY... SIZZLING ONION... CRY NOW...
(A sudden, sharp vibraslap shake aligns with a single, massive gated snare hit, and the track instantly cuts off into absolute silence.)
