Me First And The Gimme Gimmes - Rocket Man lyrics

Zero hour, nine AM

And I'm gonna be high

As a kite by then

I miss the earth so much I miss my wife

It's lonely out in space

On such a timeless

flight

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time

Touch down brings me round again to find

I'm not the man they think I am at home, oh no no no

I'm a rocket man, rocket man, burning out his fuse up here alone

(twice)

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kid

In fact it's cold as hell

And there's no one there

To raise them if you did

And all this silence I don't understand

It's just my job five days a week

A rocket man

A rocket man

(repeat chorus)

I think it's gonna be a long, long time (6 times)

Yeay, yeay, yeay
