Lyrics

ROCKET SHIP
P,Roberts, R. Boustead

I?m gonna build me a rocket ship
Out in the corner of my back yard
And when the time is right, on a summer night
I?m gonna blast away to the stars
Light the fuse and off I go
Dump all my blues into the ocean
Won?t be no telephone, won?t be no radio
No more trailer trash TV

Oh, oh, oh, this world is going insane (going insane)
Oh, oh, oh, I gotta take off, it?ll never change


Gonna build me a rocket ship
And leave this troubled world behind me
Fly away on my rocket ship
So far away they?ll never find me
Out beyond Pluto and Mars
I?ll set a course for the stars
Can?t afford to wait for another day
Gonna build me a rocket ship

I?ll find a groovy boy for my rocket ship
In a galaxy far away from here
I?ll be his spaced-out girl, he?s gonna rock my world
We?ll be in love above the stratosphere
I?ll hang curtains in my rocket ship
Play my guitar and burn some incense
It takes a few small amps to light my lava lamp
All the illumination we?ll need

Oh, oh, oh, this world is going insane (going insane)
Oh, oh, oh, I gotta take off, it?ll never change

CHORUS

(Can you hear me, hear me)
Takin? off for the great unknown
Hear the after burners start to roar
(Do you see me, see me)
Make a trail trough the summer sky
Can read my smoke
I?m goin? exploring
