Twelve thousand light years from Earth At the possible location of [?] outbursts Ignorant and worn weary, we saw the giant magnetar This remarkable super-dense object Was once a giant neutron star The remnant of a collapsed and molten core A curious breed of galaxy never seen before No longer able to support its mass It's unleashed ten thousand-trillion watts of noxious gas Aboard the Black Hole Hunter Gonna make you see Searching high and under For lost galaxies Aboard the Black Hole Hunter Most of the planets we visit Are quite cold and extremely distant Heat from the probe's batteries Warm the soil beneath it But it's all right, we're feeling fine This trip has lasted an entire light year Easily twice my Earthbound lifetime Aboard the Black Hole Hunter Gonna make you see Searching high and under For lost galaxies Aboard the Black Hole Hunter Aboard the Black Hole Hunter Speed is crucial to the chase You wanna catch those first few bursts The unknown looks you in the face You always wanted to be the first Swiftly swiveling, directly at the burst position The machine has made the wrong decision But it can't take it back It turns to point its ocular toward the blast But that particular action, the protocol says do last Aboard the Black Hole Hunter Gonna make you see Searching high and under For lost galaxies Aboard the Black Hole Hunter
