Need no polar bear to scare me
No Eskimo to share with me his fate

Woo! We outta space

No blogger needs to sell me
No dolphin needs to tell me
No starving kid
To make the case

[Chorus]
Counter blast, interstellar facial full
Bumper sticker on my rocket's ass:
"Go Home. The Earth Is Full."
Outta space, Outta space
Outta space, Outta space

Eighty acres of one stop shopping
Has somewhat changed the place

Woo! We outta space

I do not refuse it
I am guilty, I do use it
I am the reason
We outta space

[Chorus]

[solo]

Danger rides the web tonight
Burst mode dynamite
Spinning up my Facebook page
And I'll ride out towards the outer maze

The future ain't what it used to be
Time to change my galaxy in case
We outta space!

Trouble-free Earth despocrats made
Mother Nature piss her pants and when
That's human way

[Chorus]

Van Halen is one of the most iconic American rock bands of all time. Formed in Pasadena, California in 1972, the group’s primary line-up consisted of Eddie Van Halen on guitar, Alex Van Halen on drums, David Lee Roth providing lead vocals, and Michael Anthony providing bass duties and significant harmonies.

Their first six albums, recorded and released between 1977–1984, are considered to be classics and pioneering efforts in the field of hard rock. Eddie Van Halen’s groundbreaking guitar sound and techniques completely changed the landscape of music and radio culture in the 1980s. His and brother Alex’s virtuosity, along with David Lee Roth’s charisma and bassist Michael Anthony’s foundational contributions garnered the band early comparisons to their predecessors—Led Zeppelin—a group who had a profound influence on them. Though, even more so than Jimmy Page, Eddie cites Eric Clapton as having the biggest impact on his playing.

In 1977, after recording a demo with Gene Simmons (who wanted the band to change their name to “Daddy Longlegs”) they were introduced to KISS‘ management, who told Simmons they wouldn’t sign them
