My
mind is racing in the middle of the night
Riding the nightmares till dawn
My heart is pounding with
the rhythm and blues
How long is this to go on?
If I could ride on a rocket ship
I'd steal away and leave
this world behind
If I could ride on a rocket ship
I'd stay away till I cleared my mind
Sirens are waving
Brakes are screeching down the block
The kids are screaming across the way
Your head is throbbing
like it's going into shock
You've had enough for one day
If you could ride on
a rocket ship
You would run away and
leave the world awhile
If you could fly on a rocket ship
You'd stay away till you found your smile
I've been working till the brine
stones up my nose
You're in the salt mines,
night and day
Let's put the world on hold
and sneak out the back door
Come on, it's time we got away
Let's take a ride on a rocket ship
We'll steer away and leave
this world behind
Let's take a ride on a rocket ship
We'll steer away till we find our smile
Come on and ride on a rocket ship
We'll roam the stars just like Mr. Smile
Oh, take a ride on a rocket ship
We'll have some fun,
we'll do it in the dark
Well, well now, pack your bag,
leave that hat, just bring your fantasy
Take your dreams,
lock it in your soul
Grab my hand,
let's make a dash out past the Milky Way
Time to fly, bye -bye, we've got to go
Oh, yeah, we've got to go
Oh, we've got to go
Yeah, we've got to go!
