'Afterburner' is a shameless Hawkwind-meets-Kyuss-meets-Monster-Magnet riff-fest. I used to play it live with the Hibachi Dealers when I lived in England.

I have a not very well-hidden love of space-rock -- huge, monolithic riffs awash in Dr. Who-style sound effects and lyrics that want to sound cool without necessarily meaning anything in particular. :) This is my contribution to the genre. It may not be clever, but it's tremendous fun to play!

Come on ....

Step aboard
And make it fly.
We're running far
Too fast to die.
We're cutting loose
So many years
Push it back now, baby.
Light the frozen spheres.

I'm setting down 'cause it's your turn.
Get it on and watch it
Burn ....

Change the constant.
Plug it in.
Cross the streams and really
Make it spin.
On and on and on,
You know we're breaking free.
Send that silver dream
Crashing through reality.

I'm taking off 'cause it's your turn.
Get it on and make it
Burn ....

Take a ride ....

All right ....

Step aboard
And touch the sun.
Take it off now, baby.
Start your final run.
And every star
Will light our crown
One million miles away
And never coming down.

We're on our way 'cause it's your turn.
Get it on and ride that
Burn ....
