EUROPE

- The Final Countdown Lyrics

We're leaving together
But still it's farewell
And maybe we'll come back
To earth, who can tell?
I guess there is no one to blame
We're leaving ground
Will things ever be the same again?

It's the final countdown
The final countdown

Ohh
We're heading for Venus and still we stand tall
'Cause maybe they've seen us and welcome us all, yea
With so many light years to go and things to be found
(To be found)
I'm sure that we'll all miss her so

It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
(The final countdown)
Ohh ho ohh

The final countdown, oh ho
It's the final countdown
The final countdown
The final countdown
(The final countdown)

Ohh
It's the final countdown
We're leaving together
The final countdown
We'll all miss her so
It's the final countdown
(The final countdown)
Ohh, it's the final countdown
Yea

Considering the source of the lyrics, I'm betting it's a song about colonizing Venus, and meeting Aliens coz the Earth is uninhabitable. Just a hunch...

Venus, at absolute maximum distance from the Earth is around 261 million km; which is 870 light seconds, or around 0.0000276 light years. Great song, but the lyrics bug me.

They need to play this for Daniel Bryan when he goes for the World Heavyweight Championship in WrestleMania 28. Also at the 2012 Republican Convention because it is the Final Countdown for Obama.
