She packed
my bags last night
pre-flight
Zero hour nine 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
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
my fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna
be a long long time
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
A rocket man
burning out
my 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
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
A rocket man
burning out
my fuse up here alone
And I think it's gonna
be a long long time
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
A rocket man
burning out
my 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
and I think it's gonna
be a long long time
and I think it's gonna
be a long long time
yeah
yeah
yeah
