Tekst piosenki
She packed my bags last night, preflight
Zero hour, nine a.m
And I'm gonna be high
As a kite by then
Miss the Earth so much
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
Touchdown brings me 'round again to find
Not the man they think I am at all
Oh, no no no
I'm a rocket man, rocket man
Burnin' 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
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man
And I think it's gonna be a long, long, time
The touchdown brings me 'round again to find
Not the man they think I am at all
Oh, no no no
I'm a rocket man, rocket man
Burnin' out his fuse up here alone
I think it's gonna be a long time
Think it's gonna be a long time
And I miss my wife and I miss my kids
I'm a rocket man, spinning around in a tin can
