Rocket Man (I Think It's Going To Be a Long, Long Time)

She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine AM
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 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 mt job five days a week
A rocket man, a rocket man and I think it's gonna be a long long time
