Went to buy me a paper at the local news-stand
And then I heard them laugh and say
Look, theyre gonna go flying way up to the moon now
Hey, whats it good for anyway?
So I said
Fellas, like to ask you a thing if I may
What about Livingstone?
What about all those men?
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
Tell me, wasnt it worth the while
Travelling up the Nile
Putting themselves on test
Didnt that help the rest?
Wasnt it worth it then?
What about Livingstone?
And all of those fellas at the local news-stand
Didnt know what to answer or what to say
So I told them about him, that he was just like
One of those spacemen in his way
And if you laugh at them
Then theres only a thing I can say
What about Livingstone?
What about all those men?
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
Tell me, wasnt it worth the while
Travelling up the Nile
Putting themselves on test
Didnt that help the rest?
Wasnt it worth it then?
What about Livingstone?
(Didnt he do it, well didnt he?)
What about all those men?
(Didnt he do it, well didnt he?)
Who have sacrificed their lives to lead the way
Tell me, wasnt it worth the while
(Didnt he do it, well didnt he?)
Travelling up the Nile
(Didnt he do it, well didnt he?)
Putting themselves on test
Didnt that help the rest?
(Didnt he do it, well didnt he?)
Wasnt it worth it then?
What about Livingstone?
(Didnt he do it, well didnt he?)
What about all those men?
(Didnt he do it, well didnt he?)
