Rocket Man

	She packed my bags 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...
