Rocket Man

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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, oh no, no, no I'm a rocket man, a rocket man Burning out my fuse up here alone [Chorus] 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, oh no, no, no I'm a rocket man, a rocket man Burning out my fuse up here alone [Verse 2] Mars ain't the kind of place to raise a kid 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 [Chorus] 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, oh no, no, no I'm a rocket man, a rocket man Burning out my fuse up here alone [Chorus] 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, oh no, no, no I'm a rocket man, a rocket man Burning out my fuse up here alone [Outro] 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
