Rocket Ship

Here I sit, feeling low

Wishing I had anywhere to go

Want to go for a ride

For a ride inside a rocket ship



Rocket ship, rocket ship

Want to ride inside a rocket ship

On a trip, on a trip

On a trip inside a rocket ship



Here I go

I make the rocket ship go

Goin' slow

I make the rocket ship go



Fogging the view

Cupping face to the window

In darkness: the shape of a nose and a mouth

Head in the way of the viewers

And everyone standing around like there's something to get



The thing that you'll see will make you go insane

(Everyone wants to see that groovy thing)

And everyone wants to see that groovy thing

(Everyone wants to see that thing)



Second day of the trip

Of the trip inside the rocket ship

Second week, second year

We're a thousand miles from anywhere



Rocket ship, rocket ship

We're all riding in a rocket ship

On a trip, on a trip

On a trip inside a rocket ship



Messed up my face when we fell off the sofa

I injured my hair when we fell from the plane

But nothing can hurt me; I have no nerve endings

I lost so much blood that I'm ready to faint



The thing that you see will make you go insane

(Everyone wants to see that groovy thing)

And everyone wants to see that groovy thing

(And everyone wants to see that thing)



As I understand it, the thing in the window

The word on the street isn't so, I have read

According to sources the thing in the window

And based on reports and from what we've been told



The thing that you see will make you go insane

(Everyone wants to see that groovy thing)

And everyone wants to see that groovy thing

(Everyone wants to see that thing)
