The Oort Cloud (is no Place for Humans)

[instrumental intro]
[A low pitched drone with unstable pitch and deep and rich reverb signifies the vast loneliness of deep space]

[verse 1 - defiant female robot spoken voice]
The Oort Cloud
Is no place for humans

[instrumental build - A bass synthesizer plays broken chords and arpeggios]

[Chorus - sung with ethereal harmonies]
Beyond the planets, past the known,
In icy realms where comets are grown.
A frontier vast, untouched, untamed,
The Oort Cloud, where wonders are named.

[Bridge - introducing new synthesizer voices and swells]

(No Place for Humans)
(No Place for Humans)

[Verse 3 - with a sense of longing reflecting on Earth's desires]
[German choir]
Die Oortsche Wolke ist kein
Ort für bloßes Menschenfleisch

[Choral Crescendo]

[Bridge - whispered with a blend of hope and ambition]
The robots can go there
They'll call it home

[Outro - Slowly fading instruments stripped back to a bare bass beat]

[Sudden END with reverb fade]
