Biography:
Planet P Project was a science-fiction themed progressive rock band with one permanent member: Tony Carey; he used the name for his music that didn't fit the style of his other work. The first two albums, Planet P Project and Pink World, were released in 1983 and 1984 respectively, and saw a fair amount of MTV video airplay. Planet Project's most well known singles were Why Me, a sweeping, energetic romp about outer space and isolation, and the downbeat Static on the Radio.

[Verse 1]
Em Bm
Sitting up here watching all the lights blink down below
C G D
The earth is turning, why does it go so slow?
Em Bm
Thinking about the girl I left behind
C G D
Houston can you hear me, or have I lost my mind?
Em
Why me? Why me?
[Verse 2]
Em Bm
I was waiting on the pad, all systems were go
C G D
The man up in the tower was enjoying the show
Em Bm
Then I got this feeling that I never had before

Hey let me out of here, what am I here for?
Em
Why me?
[Chorus]
Bm C
There must be a thousand other guys
Am Bm
Must be some other way to look good in your eyes

Why am I up here? What do they see in me?
Am Bm
Must be one thousand other places to be
Em
Why me? Why Me?

Em Bm
The last man to be here was never heard from again
C G D
He won't be back this way till 2010

Now I'm riding on a fountain of fire

With my back to the earth, I go higher and higher
Em
Why me? Why me?
[Chorus]

Take anyone but me. Why me?
Take anyone but me. Why me? [Fade out or ad lib]
