She pack my bag up last night pre flight Zero hour nine 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 home 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 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 home Ah,no no no 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 home Oh,no no no,I'm a rocket man Rocket man burning out his fuse,up here alone I think it's gonna be a long long time... Long long time... Ah,no no no... Ah...
