    Story Behind the Song
    Starlog is another one of those songs that just fell together. This is a fun little twist on an otherwise traditional slow blues in "A".

    Lyrics
    Well I've been just sittin here
    in this cold leather chair
    Eatin freeze-dried food
    and breathin stale air
    staring at a view-screen
    with a blank look on my face
    and nothing here before me
    but the same old boring space
    I'll be stuck here, in this tin can
    for another 90 days
    I don't even wanna be here
    but it's the only job that pays

    Starfreighter's union
    went on strike two years ago
    they all had to take paycuts
    cause business was slow
    they were killed at a rally
    by a gang of synthetic clones
    leaving nothing behind
    but their lazer-charred bones
    now good pilots are hard to find
    and they pay us very well
    but it's not worth going crazy
    in this cold and lonely hell

    Can't go to sleep in suspended animation
    main computer caught a virus
    and there's no cure to be found
    and I've suffered the loss
    of artificial gravitation
    if I'm not strapped down
    then I'm floatin around
    so I gotta stay awake
    and keep this starship underway
    and wonder if my sanity
    will last another starday

    Can't blame anyone else
    for my own situation
    I signed the contract
    without legal consultation
    I just wanted to get out
    and see the universe
    but found out too late
    it's so boring that it hurts
    So I'm stuck here,in this captains chair
    for another 90 days
    I'ts just not worth the money
    But it's the only job that pays
