Astronaut
By lyrical RJ
[ chorus]
When I grow up I want to be an astronaut
And fly through the sky
But that's never gonna happen now
Because this life is cruel and we don't get what we want
I want to be an astronaut
[ verse 1 ]
I want to step my foot down on the moon
An feel this weightless forever
Take a step and jump for miles
And never come down
But I'm stuck here behind this desk
Taking crap on this phone
Longing to reach for the stars
And get out of this place
[ chorus]
When I grow up I want to be an astronaut
And fly through the sky
But that's never gonna happen now
Because this life is cruel and we don't get what we want
I want to be an astronaut
[ verse 2 ]
I want to go
On a ship to the red planet
is it as cold as they say
And I wonder what would the Martians look like
Are they green like in the films
But I'm here board driving a forklift
And being messed around
By idiots with no clue
I need to get away
[ chorus]
When I grow up I want to be an astronaut
And fly through the sky
But that's never gonna happen now
Because this life is cruel and we don't get what we want
I want to be an astronaut
[ verse 3 ]
I want to touch the ring's of saturn
And see the vast awesomeness of space
Speak to a creature with two heads
And wonder if they understand me
But i sit here all alone
My dreams gone out the window
Falling under the weight of life
I need to get on a rocket and go away
Gooooo away
[ chorus]
When I grow up I want to be an astronaut
And fly through the sky
But that's never gonna happen now
Because this life is cruel and we don't get what we want
I want to be an astronaut
