    This is the physical copy for the EP entitled "Astronaut Jumps, Nobody Misses the Landing." And it's a USB stick thing! It's got some of the album artwork on it and includes MP3 and WAV files for all six songs on the album. It also includes alternate versions for three of these songs which may be an odd thing to include! Also, it's totally understandable if you want to take the files off and just use it as a USB key. It has 4GB of space (actually around 3.7GB of usable space) and it can fit on a key-chain. It's also in the shape of a key! Does not open any doors! ...Except for the ones in your mind!!!!!!

lyrics

Minding my own business
I'm walking aimlessly
I take my steps absent-mindedly
Stairs with poor construction
Wrap my legs in a bow
The man across the stairwell sees the blow

And he jumps to the rescue
Like a kangaroo, god bless you
You're a saint in my old synagogue
You watched me fall down like a log but stop

'Cause I don't need you

Minding my own business
Daydreaming, you know
I sit back and dream of all the places that I'll go
With my head up in the stars,
And my feet down on the ground
I fail to notice the man making all sorts of sounds

And he jumps to the rescue
Like a kangaroo, god bless you
You saved me from a nice daydream
You waved and danced, you're my whole team, but stop

'Cause I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you

You solved my problems
And you jumped my hurdles
And then burnt my cobwebs too

(Oooh)

I want to thank you for all this
But think it's best to resist
A life waiting for you to

Jump to the rescue
Like a kangaroo, god bless you
You work too hard and care too much
Carry on like an anthropomorphized crutch, so stop

'Cause I don't need you
I don't need you
I don't need you (I don't need you)
I don't need you (to jump to the rescue)
I don't need you (I don't need you)
I don't need you (to jump to the rescue)
I don't need you (I don't need you)
I don't need you (to jump to the rescue)
I don't need you (I don't need you)
I don't need you (to jump to the rescue)
I don't need you (I don't need you)
I don't need you (to jump to the rescue)
