I wanna be
The best that I can
Wanna show everyone
I’m a serious man
I don’t belong here
I got one eye on a different world
And if I get stuck there
Well, I won’t care, yeah, yeah

I wanna be the last man alive
Floating past Jupiter
Just a flame in the sky

I don’t belong here
I got one eye on a different world
And if I go wrong, yeah
Won’t be long, yeah, no, no

It’s gravity, but it won’t bring me down

I wanna be an astronaut
Fly on a missile Castro bought
Travel at the speed of thought
It’s all I wanna do (It’s all I wanna do)
I wanna be an astronaut (I wanna be)
Fly on a missile Castro bought
Travel at the speed of thought
It’s all I wanna do

And if I go wrong there
Won’t be long there, no, no

It’s gravity, but it won’t bring me down

I wanna be an astronaut
Fly on a missile Castro bought, yeah
Travel at the speed of thought
It’s all I wanna do (It’s all I wanna do)

I wanna be an astronaut (I wanna be)
Fly on a missile Castro bought
Travel at the speed of thought
It’s all I wanna do
I wanna be an astronaut (I wanna be)
Fly on a missile Castro bought
Travel at the speed of thought
It’s all I wanna do
I wanna be an astronaut (I wanna be)
Fly on a missile Castro bought, yeah
Travel at the speed of thought
It’s all I wanna do

All I wanna do
All I wanna do
All I wanna do
