Solar Skate

Let's skate through the galaxy!
Pierce Freelon

This song is available on Pierce Freelon's Grammy nominated album Black to the Future.

So what’s it gonna be huh
We got the whole galaxy to ourselves
I got an idea

It’s Saturday and I know what you want to do
Call up all your friends and tell them meet you at the pool
I don’t really want to swim today
How bout the zoo
I’ll bring my fanny pack and play the kangaroo - we already did that last week
Maybe we can go and hit the trampolines - no
Hit the aquarium and see a manatee - nah
Go and grab some clothes up off a mannequin - go get your skates
We need an activity girl I’m panicking

Let’s roll

(Chorus)
Round and round
Until the night time
Round and round
Cause I got real friends
All and round
That hold me down down
Through all the hards times
Round and round
You feel the right vibe
Round and round

Cause I got real friends
All and round
That hold me down down
Get your roll on
Soaring through the sky with you tonight
Let’s go
Solar skating
Solar skate
The wheels are spinning fast I’m getting hot
Let’s go
Solar skating
Solar skate
Let’s go solar skating - solar skating (x6)

Let’s go solar skating - let’s go solar skating
Let’s go solar skating - solar skate
We can skate it really don’t matter your age
You can lace up skate up in some roller blades
Take it back
Helmets and knee pads we need Daddy
So fast escape on the streets Daddy
Leaving quarantine is like a fantasy - yes
Me without my skates is a calamity - yeah
This is how I try to keep my sanity - go get your skates
Rolling with the homies and the family

So come and roll with me

(Chorus)

Cause I got real friends
All and round
That hold me down down

Come on baby let’s go
Soaring through the sky with you tonight
Let’s go
Solar skating
Solar skate
The wheels are spinning fast I’m getting hot
Let’s go
Solar skating
Solar skate
Let’s go solar skating - solar skating (x6)

Let’s go solar skating - let’s go solar skating
Let’s go solar skating - solar skate
