Stanley Kubrick Lyrics

[Hook]
Giant steps are what you take, walking on the moon
I hope my legs don't break, walking on
Walking on the moon


[Verse 2]
Not a huge fan of the award for the best rapper
But they give the moon man award to the best actor
Guess we must go straight to the source and let's ask NASA
Uh, how do you explain the occurrence of lunar waves?
Why do we only see one half of the lunar face?
How do you explain air bubbles you view in space?
Why is it so important to lie to the human race?
Million mile internet that travels light years
But they can't show a space shuttle re-enter the atmosphere, okay
To blast off you gotta practice Freemasonry
An acronym that stands for Not A Space Agency


[Hook: B.o.B]
Giant steps are what you take, walking on the moon
I hope my legs don't break, walking on
Walking on the moon


Some may say, I'm wishing my days away, no way
And if it's the price I pay, some say
Tomorrow's another day, you'll stay
Walking on, walking on the moon

About

Genius Annotation

The song title refers to Stanley Kubrick, the director behind 2001: A Space Odyssey, a famous film based on space travel filled with esoteric symbolism. Kubrick even eventually obtained special lenses from NASA for shooting low-light scenes.

Cleverly sampling a cover of the song “Walking on the Moon” written by Sting of The Police, B.o.B discusses the topic of Apollo 11 and asks some very eye-opening questions.
