Rocket boy, rocket boy, rocket boy...
|
|
Didn't see, I had no idea, I never heard it before
|
And I said, "What good are you?
|
Yeah, well, 'Why don't I?' is the question of the year."
|
You used to be my favorite toy
|
But what happened to my rocket boy?
|
|
Rocket boy, where are you gonna land?
|
I said, "Go, don't stop it, go, don't stop it, how we all understand."
|
You used to be my pride and joy
|
Now you're just my rocket, rocket boy
|
|
They don't know, my friends
|
We got off again
|
How'm I gonna get myself to sleep?
|
I've got stains on my sheets and my nails are torn down to the bone
|
|
Wouldn't it be nice to have an ordinary girlfriend?
|
Laughing 'bout it makes it real
|
It makes it happen to me
|
Well, I can reach you
|
|
Didn't see, I had no idea, I never heard it before
|
"Well," I said, "what good are you?
|
Why don't I, no sense of fear?"
|
You used to be my favorite toy
|
But now you're just my little rocket boy
|
(Rocket boy)
|
My rocket boy
|
(My rocket boy)
|
|
Rocket boy, when are you gonna land?
|
(Rocket boy, yeah)
|
I said, "Go, don't stop it, go, don't stop it, now may all understand."
|
(Rocket boy, yeah)
|
I said, "Rocket boy, when are you gonna land?"
|
(Rocket boy)
|
I said, "Rocket boy, they just don't understand."
|
(Die is cast and the dice are rollin', I'm feelin' like shit 'cause she's feelin' like gold)
|
You used to be my pride and joy, my boy
|
You had me
