Bjork - The Comet Song Lyrics






With our fingers we make million holes
We run and we fall into pot holes
On a mission to savor the world, oh!
We peek at the sky through tree holes.

Comet! Oh, damn it!
The comet comes hurtling down
On a precious plot of earth.

Like the bugs in mother's flower bed
We walk on long legs over the sea bed
On our mission to save the world, oh!
We need milk and cakes and a warm bed.

Comet! Oh, damn it!
The comet comes hurtling down
On a precious plot of earth.

Grey leaves are too much
For any mother to handle
A father must pull
His black hat down over the eyes.

Bjork The Comet Song Comments
  1. A.... ....

    [Verse 1]
    With our fingers, we make million holes
    We run and we fall into potholes
    On a mission to savor the world, oh!
    We peek at the sky through tree holes

    [Chorus]
    Comet! Oh, damn it!
    The comet comes hurtling down
    On a precious plot of earth

    [Verse 2]
    Like the bugs in mother's flower bed
    We walk on long legs over the sea bed
    On our mission to save the world, oh!
    We need milk and cakes and a warm bed

    [Chorus]
    The comet! Oh, damn it!
    The comet comes hurtling down
    On a precious plot of earth

    [Outro]
    Grey leaves are too much
    For any mother to handle
    A father must pull
    His black hat down over the eyes

    The kids must be terrified

  6. T.... R....

    ohhh this is the best i love it so much

  7. l.... ....

    Though I can see some charm on this, If I watched it when I was a kid this woul've traumatized me so hard.

  8. L.... L....

    Mis dos cosas favoritas!

  9. d.... ....

    Alguien me puede ecplicar el video??

  10. M.... T....

    This is a bit creepy, but i like it.

  13. J.... _....

    Utopia :3

  14. A.... R....

    I wonder as to the thought process of Icelandic producers. "We are making our nation's first 3D animation, how can we appeal to children internationally and make it a success? .... I know, let's get screechy Bjork to sing an abrasive and abstract song, kids will love it!"

  15. F.... ....

    ready for the gate? :)

  16. T.... ....

    Why is this a song

  17. D.... D....

    so cute

  18. J.... C....

    backrolls?

    J.... C....

    Jonas Carneiro *tongue pop*

    J.... C....

    Did not expect RPDR memes here

  19. R.... B....

    Björk y moomins, las dos cosas mas bellas que han existido en el mundo

    R.... B....

    Estoy totalmente de acuerdo

  20. N.... B....

    björk + Moomins
    this is too good! awesome

  21. C.... ....

    whaaaaat

  22. J.... ....

    reminds me of her old flute work in the elgar sisters, like glora. spooky and playful

  23. S.... ....

    this song is so cute and the video too. i love this <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

    S.... ....

    i'm sorry but it's sounds creepy!

    S.... ....

    +mynameiskranz ? How the hell can this sound creepy?

    S.... ....

    sounds like occult ritual theme song

    S.... ....

    @mynameiskranz well its about a comet. Comets can be Wery scary. I think more that the song is cute. Not so scary. But i think The Walking Dead theme song is scary. I mean if you want to hear a scary tune the walking dead tune is.

  24. V.... B....

    Hurvää uut

  25. c.... ....

    Awww que hermoso! Y cuantos recuerdos es mi vídeo favorito de Björk

  26. S.... E....

    That fireball is like the UFO that flew over New York towards Canada in the early '70s. It was seen and described by an FAA Director. THAT'S THE ONE OVER THE BARN BETWEEN THE BIG TREES STRETCHING OVER THE ROAD IN PROJECT BLUEBOOK!! WAHOOOO!

  27. D.... ....

    This feels almost like a Vulnicura song <3

    D.... ....

    @DinosaurAlive not really...

    D.... ....

    I think you meant "Biophilia"

    D.... ....

    The songs of vulnicura were actually written since this time, so she had already vulnicura's vibe

  28. T.... T....

                                              `"º;!-..-!;º"´

  29. f.... ....

    Con björk para que marihuana

    f.... ....

    faultfinder9 i think so

  30. P.... �....

    sometimes I believe that Bjork herself is a moomin!

    P.... �....

    totally agree

    P.... �....

    Of course ;)

    P.... �....

    Yes she is!!

  31. R.... D....

    Moomin Power

  32. N.... V....

    que joyas!

  33. M.... S....

    from beginning to end this song is so magical!!! :D cooomet!!! <3

  34. d.... a....

    los moomin !!!!!

  35. E.... W....

    now i know that blankets can protect me from the comets, thanks Bjork.

  36. v.... ....

    I love the moomins, I used to watch it when I was a kid, and Stewie Griffin always reminded me of Little My lol

  37. t.... f....

    Search : The Chosen One for a video with the comet song in it.

  38. m.... ....

    OMG!!!! I love the moomins, they remind me my childhood!!

  39. i.... a....

    This would easily fit as the theme song for Candle Cove...

  40. Z.... ....

    i don't think it fits the moomins... not because if it is creepy or not, i don't care. It can be super creepy and super sad but.... it must work, and this song doesn't work as a Moomin song.

  41. B.... O....

    Me da escalofríos!!! :3

  42. L.... F....

    "Graves are too much for any Mother to handle." I absolutely adore that line.

  43. N.... B....

    Good to see The Moomins are still in our collective consciousness. One of my childhood memories is of sitting on the sofa and thinking 'I want to go to Moomin land.'

  44. V.... P....

    Man, it's been so long since I read that book... It always perplexed me how the comet seemingly did absolutely nothing to the world instead of shattering, sundering, destroying, completely annihilating the moomins' planet. I might have forgotten it, or maybe there never really was any explanation as to why the planet (and the moomins, and their friends) survived being struck by a comet. Puzzling.

  45. A.... C....

    this songs make me go back to my childhood and fuck it up

  46. d.... e....

    i love this song why oh why isnt it a bonus track on the uk edition of biophillia along with nattura

  47. M.... M....

    A teraz muminki dotarły do Polski.:) Lepiej późno niż wcale ale może się chociaż okaże, że mamy lepszy podkład do dialogów!:P
    W życiu bym nie wpadł na pomysł, żeby bjork robiła piosenkę do tej bajki. A tak fajnie jej to wyszło.

  48. s.... ....

    To each their own, but I seriously can't stand to listen to it, and can't even to begin to understand why anyone else would either. I'm sure on some level it's very artistic, but as far as appealing to the ear, no thank you.

  49. M.... D....

    śliczna jest ta wersja Muminków :)

  50. a.... ....

    @YourMomsAThug That's probably one of the most tame of curse words.... kids hear much worse on the playground anyway .. they'll be fine

  51. j.... e....

    wow, you guys are not going to believe this, but i have this reocurring nightmare about a meteor or comet crashing into the earth and seeing it,hearing it, and i always wake up right before it happens. and this is a childrens movie? but hey i love bjork and she can do no wrong. reminds me of her early solo songs that sound like a fairy tale or sometype of pixie song. beautiful...bjork please come to seattle!

  52. R.... ....

    I bought the single thinking it would be this version and its not, its actually kind've disappointing. There's too much background noise/vocals and it doesn't have the cool little voice blip at 1:13. I think that little blip makes the whole song.

  53. g.... ....

    OMG! this is like... uuuhh uuuh grrr gr gajrñakl prssssst ooo h h h h clongggg..... and then flush

  54. N.... ....

    @ribogok It's the title track I believe. I like it.

  55. F.... ....

    what synths? have people never heard of flutes and flute like acoustic instruments?

  56. s.... ....

    I dunno what instrument is used mostly in the verses, but it sounds amazing.

  57. S.... E....

    Please tell me it's not going to be in the movie. Horrible.

  58. n.... ....

    fascinante...muy lindo y tierna cancion

  59. 0.... 0....

    comment traduire "nul a chier" en anglais? :)

  60. F.... T....

    @shucham Why is she crazy??

  61. �.... L....

    Très artistique, magnifique

  62. s.... ....

    She is crazy and people actually listen to her shit!!!

  63. K.... L....

    im very sick and this song just made me feel better :) thanks for posting

  64. C.... M....

    Kochane Muminki, Kochana Björk

  65. V.... ....

    Aw I wants the black kitteh!

  66. g.... ....

    I feel like I'm eating my own soul and it tastes awesome

  67. B.... N....

    @Twatzorz true

  68. M.... E....

    @NathanBro1
    lol brah i know wat u meen this is just totally gay ololol!!!
    Narrowminded, much?

  69. s.... ....

    ha ha moomins

  70. B.... N....

    Lol, I looked for Comet Song by Dethklok and clicked on this, this is just gay.

  71. w.... ....

    Hail! Moomin people.

  72. j.... ....

    She sounds identical to Karin Andersson in this song.

  73. D.... J....

    Amo a los moomins!!

  74. E.... K....

    @MrJdele As real as cancer.

  75. M.... ....

    WTF. Is this for reals or did I swallow one too many acid.....

  76. G.... ....

    @siqbrah I totally thought the same thing! :)

  77. A.... ....

    im so happy shes still making the most bizarre an enjoyable music on the planet

  78. �.... D....

    Its great, bjork is unique!

  79. K.... C....

    she has probably always known that there was something hurling towards us. thankfully, her beauty and creativity can distract us amid disaster.

  80. E.... K....

    Too many posting who know nothing about the Moonins or Björk.

  81. L.... S....

    Far too many kids posting here who don't know Bjork or the Moomins.

    Seriously, the Moomins is a cartoon from another age. They just won't get it.

  82. a.... ....

    THIS IS SO FUCKING SICKKKKKK

  83. d.... ....

    exciting.

  84. N.... ....

    WTF IS THIS?????? THIS ISNT A DETHKLOK COVER SONG... >:{

  85. 2.... ....

    Well we r dead.

  86. Y.... H....

    This white hippo reminds me of a marshmallow... I want to bite him! xD Love Bjork.

  87. D.... ....

    This mite be the worst song that i have ever heard. However in her defense the story looks stupid too

  88. 3.... ....

    I just remembered the Moomins all of a sudden... I completely forgot them, and now.. I don't know, they smell like my childhood. And so does this song.
    (nostalgic moment, sorry.)

  89. t.... ....

    This is not a Björk song I would listen to at home, but combined with the visuals it works very well. It's very moody, eerie and tense and it's perfect to complement the dark tone of the movie. This will certainly make children feel uneasy.
    If you have seen the old stopmotion series of the Moomins, this matches that weird nightmarish vibe.

  90. m.... h....

    @kyerkahn FUCK YOU AND EVERYONE WHO THINKS SHES AN ARTIST WITH AN AQUIRED TASTE, FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!

  91. R.... ....

    Oh my... I prefer japanese version!

  92. T.... ....

    I bought Comet in 1968. The world has not yet ended but I still read my Moomintroll books.

  93. L.... B....

    What quality, man!!

  94. P.... W....

    @anythingnew
    beatnik's were like 50's-60's America...

  95. K.... A....

    ...is this real life?

  96. a.... ....

    @fflybz seems you are not familiar with the other songs from her singles, actually this kind of songs are the ones that suit nice for her voice and the ambient like other videos(like wanderlust)

  97. a.... ....

    wow. all I can say is: this is so björkish like any other of her songs...
    I cant tagg me as a huge fan of her music, but actually like it...
