Rocket Man

She packed my bags last night

Pre flight

Zero hour 9 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 all

Oh no no no

I'm a rocket man

Rocket man

Burning out his fuse up here alone

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

Till touch down brings me 'round again to find

Not the man they think I am at all

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

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 all

Oh no no no

I'm a rocket man

A rocket man

Burning out his fuse up here alone

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 all

Oh no no no

I'm a rocket man

A rocket man

Burning out his 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

Gonna be a long long time
