[Verse 1]
She packed my bags last night - pre-flight
Zero hour, nine A.M.
And I'm gonna be high -i-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 ti - i -imeless 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
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone
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
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone
[Verse 2]
Mars ain't the kinda 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
Rocket man -aaa -a -a- an 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
Rocket man, burnin' out his fuse up here alone
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
Rocket man, burnin' out his 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
(Repeat 6 more times and fade out)
