I started my working life as an astronomer in an observatory at the top of a hill. Courting couples would often come to the hill and one day, on spotting a "Peeping Tom", my friend said "Don't be judgemental, astronomers are just voyeurs of the night sky". This rap is a light-hearted take on that pronouncement.

"Rebirth of Venus" was released as an instrumental single in 2022 and has been played on local radio. I always felt that it was suitable for a rap.

Lyrics

REBIRTH OF VENUS

(Verse 1)
REBIRTH OF VENUS

(Verse 1)
An astronomer by night am I
A voyeur of the starry sky
I use my scope to seek a thrill
Stargazing is my guilty skill
A sparkling jewel comes into view
Venus, girl, I’m watching you
As I stalk you from afar
You can be my morning star

(Verse 2)
When I set my scope to zoom
You disappear behind the Moon
Why do you choose to hide away
When all I want is you to stay
When I view your occultation
I can feel a strange sensation
As the Moon sits in between us
Eyeing the rebirth of Venus

(Response 1)
You are always watching me
Don’t want me to be free
Cause everything must be about you
When I’m shining in the dawn
Don’t want to turn you on
I need to be reborn without you

(Verse 3)
I will get to see you soon
When you come from behind the Moon
I’m standing firm in my belief
Your occultation will be brief
Then you’ll be reborn for me
And no one else as you will see
It will be time for me to show you
That I want to get to know you

(Verse 4 shortened)
I can’t find you night or day
It appears you’ve moved away
You’ve travelled far to spoil my fun
And moved much closer to the Sun

(Response 2)
You were always watching me
But now that I am free
No longer need to care about you
I'm not shining in the dawn
Treating you with scorn
Now I have been reborn without you

(Verse 5)
I accept that you have gone
And don’t look where the Sun has shone
Cause I must protect my eyes
To help me find another prize
So, I need to start anew
Use my telescope to view
Search the universe to find
Another gem to blow my mind
