4 - 3 - 2 - 1 - IGNITION!

Final lap dance, one last drink
but baby don’t feel sorry for me.
About to ditch the thing
that makes your boobs swing,
back up the well to where the rocks roll free.

‘Cause I’m an asteroid miner (wooh-ooh!)
like my daddy and my paw-paw was.
And yeah, I wear manliner (wooh-ooh!)
just so you would know I’m not your earthworm cuz.

I’m an asteroid miner. (miner, miner, wooh-ooh!)
I’m an as-te-ro-oid mi-i-i-i-iner (ooh)

[break]

Yeah, baby, yeah, baby, yeah!
You're part of my therapy (ye-eah!)

Out in the Belt I’m closer to God
and I thank Him for pressurizing my pod.
I shoot from the hip and trust my gut
and gut anyone that tries to steal my cut!

‘Cause I’m an asteroid miner (wooh-ooh!)
born on a hull where we drink our piss.
But I wear designer (oh-ooh-ooh!)
just to let you know I’m not your broke-ass sis.

As-teroid mi-ne-er—mine that asteroid... (owww!)

I know who to sell to, who to bribe, and who to rob.
No Martian robot’s gonna steal my job.
Got a powerful lobby in the Solar Alliance.
We say, give us better ships
but fuck your science! (yeah, fuck your science!)

And I’m not gay, not even bi-curious.
When I sleep with other men it’s because I’m “Mercurious”
It’s okay to want a penis—
just pray it away when you slingshot from Venus.

Asteroid miner—pillar of the Solar economy
Asteroid miner—never a pillar of salt for sodomy (that was never me!)
Asteroid miner—never covet my pilot's wife
Asteroid miner—but my pilot’s torso makes me feel alive...

[instrumental break]

Lap dance over but don’t worry about me—
I’m headed to a place where everything hangs free.
It’s pretty cool if you like huge diamonds.
I’ll introduce you to my best friend Simon...

Ooh, Simon! He’s my favorite asteroid miner.

Asteroid Miner

Things are better than they used to be
much better than they used to be
it’s time to stop trying
to make things better than they used to be
much better than they used to be
in large part thanks to me
it’s time to take a victory nap

Seems like I can never be woke enough
No, it’s never enough.
I've had enough! I’m done with this nonsense
and I’m going back to sleep.

Less violent than we used to be
Break out the bubbly
It’s time to stop trying
just wake me up when we’re already there!

Same old messages bore me
checked off acting nobly
What else do you got for me?
I called the pot and the kettle
so where the hell is my medal
for getting that one right?
(it’s getting late in the night)

Wake me up when we’re already there
I’m too worn out from pretending to care
might slip and say what I think you all are...

Wake me up when we’re already there
Let someone drive who enjoys this sad affair
I’ll always feel like we might have gone too far...

Seems like I can never feel man enough
I’m physically tough, made of the right stuff
but that’s not enough
in a world that’s attacking me mentally

More equal than we used to be
Break out the bubbly
It’s time to stop crying
wake me up when we’re already there

Same old messages bore me
checked off acting nobly
What else do you got for me?
I called the pot and the kettle
so where the hell is my medal
for getting that one right?
(it’s getting late in the night)

Wake me up when we’re already there
I’m too worn out from being forced to care
might slip and say what I actually believe...

Wake me up when we’re already there
Let someone drive who enjoys the truth or dare
I’ll always feel like I’m not allowed to grieve...

The NTT - It Really Works

Jaime’s Tone released today the first ‘Best Of’ of his career.

“Five years after the release of the first Jaime’s Tone album, and after a more intimate release in both French and English, I felt the need to reinvent some of my songs”, stated Jacques M., founder of Jaime’s Tone. “I had the feeling that some songs from the first two albums were really great, and deserved to be re-edited and remastered, with the idea to be on the one hand more straightforward, and, on the other hand, to achieve a better sound”, Jacques added.

Naturally, Jacques turned to Etienne Pelosoff, the mixing and mastering engineer who took care of Jaime’s Tone’s third album, “Take Your Chance”. He re-edited songs from the first two albums, and then asked Etienne to remaster the whole album. Not only did Etienne perform a great work, but he also made a remix of his favorite title of the third album, which appears on the ‘Best of’ as a bonus track.
Therefore, “Best of Jaime’s Tone” includes 10 songs coming from “Futuristic Apocalypse”, “Alone in the city of Dreams”, and “Take Your Chance”, the first three albums, as well as this additional remix. 7 titles have been re-edited, and all have been remastered.

A teaser video accompanies the album. It is available at https://youtu.be/pY-5pBdh5O8.

United - Lyrics

When I look into this crazy world
Seems everybody's looking out for themselves
Put your love on the shelf
You can't see need when in love with yourself
One word, one world, one thought
Is all you really need
U.N.I.T.E., U.N.I.T.E.

I bleed and my pleas
The way of the world got me on my knees
It seems to me
We've all forgotten one simple theme it’s
One word, one world, one thought
Is all you really need
U.N.I.T.E., U.N.I.T.E.

It's time for everyone to light the lights.
Take a look into your brother’s eyes and do what's right.
Come on and put your hands together.
Come on and put your hands together.

So, united we stand,
United we fall,
United has no colour,
United has no wall,
United’s in your kitchen,
United’s in your hall,
United’s in your heart,
United's in us all.

But when will it ever happen?
I don’t know when this time will come.
But when will this ever happen?
I don’t know when this time will come.

So, I am here alone
And sitting on my own.
I can’t believe that no one cares
And no one’s even there.

Let’s get united, let’s all unite!
No need to light it, no need to fight!
Let’s get united, let’s all unite!
No need to hide it, let's make it right!
