She packed my bags last night, preflight.
Zero hour nine a.m.
And I’m gonna be high
High as a kite by then.
I miss the earth so much
I miss my lady.
It’s lonely out in space.
On such a time, time
Such a timeless flight.
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Till touchdown brings me round again to find
I’m not the man
They think I am at all.
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I’m a rocket man.
Rocket man
Mars ain’t the kind of place
You want to raise your kids.
In fact, it’s cold as hell.
And there’s no one there
That can raise them, if you did.
And all the science I don’t understand.
It’s just my job five days a week.
I’m a rocket man
oh, oh oh
I’m a rocket man.
And I think it’s gonna be a long, long time
Till touchdown brings me round again
To find I’m not the man
They think I am at all.
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I’m a rocket man.
Rocket man
Rocket man
