I wanted to make a good run
I wanted to go to the moon
I knew that it had to be fun
I told them to send me real soon
I wanted to be a space man
I wanted to be it so bad
But now that I am a space man
I'd rather to be back on the pad
Chorus + last line:
Is just a lot of lunacy
D# Bb
Round and around and around and around and around
So bring me back down
D# F
Round and around and around and around and around
Bb
Safe on the ground
Chorus
You know I wanted to be a space man
That's what I wanted to be
But now that I am a space man
Nobody cares about me
Chorus #2:
Say hey, Mother Earth, better bring me back down
I've taken just as much as I can
But round and around and around and around
Is the problem of the space man
