about

I heard about the Cassini space probe and its fantastic, romantic demise as it crashed through the rings of Saturn and wondered to myself "What would she be like if she were a person?".

lyrics

She likes to swim, but she don’t like the water
She likes the meat, but she don’t like the slaughter
She’s got a mum but she’s nobody’s daughter
Under arrest, but nobody’s caught her

She likes to fly but she don’t like the jet plane
She don’t make sense ‘cause she lives in her right brain
In the space of creative friction
She straddles the line between fact and fiction

Come Back!

Cassini dives through the rings of Saturn
Crash and splash in a spiral pattern
Creak and burn as the casement cracks
Cassini won’t be ever coming back

Come Back!
