Ready for take off
You know probably her, 'bout this pretty little girl
Only know is that she's saved the world
She got sent away, but she wasn't afraid
Though she was alone in the dark big space
Left the cheering crowd, went above the clouds
Rocket going high, then they say goodbye
She still wonders why, but she loves to fly
I hope Laika never died and that she's been surrounded, still
And that she has a party in the air and always will
I hope that she is dancing every night among the stars
I hope Laika is alivе
Laika party in the sky
Laika party in the sky
Through the comеts and the stones, she is howling for her bones
Singing along to the stars and song
And if she didn't fly, what would you and I?
A forever hero for humankind
Left a chilling crowd, went above the clouds
Rocket going high, then they say goodbye
She still wonders why, but she loves to fly
I hope Laika never died and that she's been surrounded, still
And that she has a party in the air and always will
I hope that she is dancing every night among the stars
I hope Laika is alive
Laika party in the sky
Laika party in the sky
Laika party in the sky, oh-oh
Laika party in the sky, oh-oh
Laika party in the sky
