She packed my bags last night pre-flight
|
Zero hour nine a.m.
|
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
|
Till 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
|
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
|
In fact it's cold as hell
|
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
|
And all this science I don't understand
|
It's just my job five days a week
|
A rocket man, a rocket man
|
And I think it's gonna be a long long time...
