DANGER WILL ROBINSON



Hadley Price



A Sci-Fi Warning With a Human Heart. Some warnings are impossible to ignore. “Danger, Will Robinson” takes one of science fiction’s most recognizable alarm calls and launches it into a new musical world.





one where technology, artificial intelligence, curiosity, and human instinct collide.

The song has the energy of a retro science-fiction adventure but looks squarely toward the future. Its mechanical imagery and sense of approaching danger create a cinematic atmosphere, while underneath it all is a very human idea: What happens when the technology we create begins moving faster than our ability to understand or control it?

There is some fun in the concept, too. The familiar phrase gives the song an immediate wink to classic sci-fi, but the music isn't intended simply as nostalgia. It turns that warning into something relevant again. Robots, intelligent machines, autonomous technology, and worlds once imagined only in movies no longer seem quite so distant.

That contrast is what makes “Danger, Will Robinson” work—the excitement of discovery mixed with the uneasy feeling that perhaps we should pay attention to the flashing lights.

The accompanying artwork carries that idea into another world: a weathered robot standing against a brilliant alien sunset, surrounded by strange terrain and futuristic spacecraft. He looks like he's traveled a very long way to deliver one simple message: Danger, Will Robinson.

Lyrics



DANGER WILL ROBINSON, by Hadley Price



Danger, Will Robinson…
We’re lost in space now…

The screens are flashing red again

The map won’t hold still

Everybody’s selling fear

And calling it free will

The doors all look like exit signs

But none of them lead home

The warning blares above us

While we scroll through it alone​


We used to reach for heaven

Now we argue with the sky

Somebody changed the numbers

Somebody taught the stars to lie

Danger, Will Robinson

We’re lost in space now

The Earth is spinning backwards

And nobody knows how

The signal’s full of static

The captain’s lost his mind

Danger, Will Robinson

We’ve left the truth behind


The moon hangs there sideways

Like it’s looking away

The newsman says, “Stay calm now,”

Then sells another day

The rich are buying lifeboats

The rest are buying time

And every warning light is blinking

Out of line


We used to reach for heaven

Now we argue with the sky

Somebody changed the numbers

Somebody taught the stars to lie


Danger, Will Robinson

We’re lost in space now

The Earth is spinning backwards

And nobody knows how

The signal’s full of static

The captain’s lost his mind

anger, Will Robinson

We’ve left the truth behind


Can you hear the metal shaking?

Feel the engines strain?

We keep calling it a journey

As we circle down in flames

If there’s a way to turn this thing

Before the last light’s gone

Somebody better find it—

Danger, we’ve been wrong


Danger, Will Robinson

We’re lost in space now

The Earth is spinning backwards

And nobody knows how

We traded maps for madness

We traded love for lines

Danger, Will Robinson

We’ve left the truth behind


The signal fades to silence

And nobody turns around.
