Charlie Robison - Rocket Man lyrics
[Charlie Robison - Rocket Man lyrics]
She packed my bags last night, preflight
Zero hour, 9 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
'Til touchdown brings me 'round
Again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Ah, no no no i'm a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin' out this 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 rocket man
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round
Again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Ah, no no no i'm a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin' out this fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
Zero hour, 9 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
'Til touchdown brings me 'round
Again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Ah, no no no i'm a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin' out this 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 rocket man
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round
Again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Ah, no no no i'm a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin' out this fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
