Rocket boy, rocket boy, rocket boy...

Didn't see, didn't know, hadn't heard it before

I'm missing everything this time
And you're closing the door
You used to be my favorite toy

Now you're just my rocket, rocket boy

Rocket boy, when are you gonna land?

Rocket boy, they just don't understand
You used to be my pride and joy
Now you're just my rocket, rocket boy


Wouldn't it be nice if I'd been an ordinary girlfriend?
Laughin' 'bout it makes it real

It makes it happen to me
Well, I can reach you


Didn't see, couldn't know, hadn't heard it before
You're slipping out on a mission
And (?)

You used to be my favorite toy
Now you're just my rocket, my rocket boy


Rocket boy, when are you gonna land?
Rocket boy, they just don't understand
You used to be my pride and joy, my boy

When you had me
