Bang, bang, shoot em' up, destiny
|
Bang, bang, shoot em' up to the moon
|
Bang, bang, shoot em' up one, two, three
|
(One, two, three, four!)
|
|
I wanted to be a spaceman
|
That's what I wanted to be
|
But now that I am a spaceman
|
Nobody cares about me
|
|
Hey mother earth
|
Won't 'cha bring me back down
|
Safely to the sea
|
But 'round and around and around and around
|
Is all she ever say to me
|
|
I wanted to make a good run
|
I wanted to go to the moon
|
I knew that it had to be fun
|
I told 'em to send me real soon
|
I wanted to be a spaceman
|
I wanted to be it so bad
|
But now that I am a spaceman
|
I'd rather be back on the pad
|
|
Hey mother earth
|
Won't 'cha bring me back down
|
Safely to the sea
|
But 'round and around and around and around
|
Is just a lot of lunacy
|
(Yeah!)
|
'Round and around and around and around and around
|
(So bring me back down)
|
'Round and around and around and around and around
|
Safe on the ground
|
|
Hey mother earth
|
Won't 'cha bring me back down
|
Safely to the sea
|
But 'round and around and around and around
|
Is all she ever say to me, yeah
|
|
You know I wanted to be a spaceman
|
That's what I wanted to be
|
But now that I am a spaceman
|
Nobody cares about me
|
|
Say, hey! You mother earth
|
You better bring me back down
|
I've taken just as much as I can
|
But around and around and around and around
|
Is the problem of a spaceman
|
|
(Ah's!)
