Intro:
Verse:
Don t bother to call this room theres nobody here who can pick up
Or has stuff they need to talk about and who won t be now checking out and
flying
Chorus:
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By frontdoor to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket hanging down the legs
Verse 2:
Thank you for the card with the cartoon nurse but you see there s
nothing wrong with me
You think. That s what you think. That s what they all say before
I blow you away
Chorus:
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By frontdoor to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket hanging down the legs
Bridge:
Soon the man who sweeps the room
brings the secret telegram.
"Commence official interplanetary exploration"

Verse 3:
Thank you for the card with the cartoon nurse but you see

Chorus:
By rocket to the moon
By airplane to the rocket
By taxi to the airport
By frontdoor to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket hanging down the legs
Chorus:
By rocket to the moon
Crawl to the rocket
By coughing at the airport
By limping to the taxi
By throwing back the blanket hanging down the withered legs
