the skins like the sun like the red colored one that they call my
rocket, rocket
that some ancient tune that invented the moon and the stars
now that I've found you I'm learning the sound to explain how you are
I'm a soul...  built on reactions and fatal attractions and phony hopes

rocket, rocket
the flowers of death and the gin-tainted breath of don juan
rocket, rocket
the people should know that the radar won't show where you are
now that I've found you I'm learning the sound to explain how you are
I'm a soul...  built on reactions and fatal attractions and phony hopes

rocket my soul, swallow me whole
the rocket begins
rocket you know, when I explode
the rocket song ends

rocket, rocket
this deep outer space to replace what you reach from within
rocket, rocket
the message to millions who don't understand what you're told
now that I've found you I'm learning the sound to explain how you are
I'm a soul...
now that I've found you this song is about to
now that I've found you this song is about to
now that I've found you this song is a sound on your stereo

rocket my soul, swallow me whole
the rocket begins
rocket you know, when I explode
the rocket song ends
rocket you sought, whether or not
the air was too thin
wherever you go, rocket you know
that I'll be your friend
