She packed my bags last night pre-flight
Zero hour nine a.m.
And I'm gonna be high as a kite by then
I miss the earth so much, I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
**And I think it's gonna be a long long time
Till touch down brings me round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh no no no I'm a rocket man**
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone
Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it's cold as hell
And there's no one there to raise them if you did
And all this science I don't understand
It's just my job five days a week
A rocket man, a rocket man
中文歌词
昨晚，她在起飞前帮我整理行李
发射时间为上午九时
到那时候，我会飞得像风筝一样高
我很想念地球和我太太
在外太空是很寂寞的
在这无尽的飞行中
我想这会是一段很长的时间
直到降落，会使我发现
我不再是人们在家中看到我的那个人
我是个火箭太空人
独自在太空中点燃引信
火星不是适合养育小孩的地方
事实上，那里冷得要命
即使你想的话，那里也没有人
所有的科学我都不懂
这只是我一周五天的工作
我是个火箭太空人———
