sit in the back of the classroom getting bored
have to write "thou shall not daydream" on the board
other kids with the kickass bookbags you can't afford
try to talk the girls in home room & get ignored
rocket ship on the launch strip set up
set up in the night wait for break in the sky
tiny figure in the space man get up
get up for the field trip & wave em goodbye
make a straight shot for the bedroom to take a break
mom comes in the ritalin you forgot to take
school calls & your dad is pissed off, you're fucking dead
you did fine on the algebra test but you flunked phys ed
(chorus)
8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
sit in the back of the cubicle getting bored
told your boss you could use some time off & got ignored
productivity is lagging says the memo from the board
tune it out, there's a better way out & it's all aboard
rocket ship for the launch strip set up
set up in the night wait for break in the clouds
get away from this bullshit set up
set up all your gear now you're counting aloud
rocket trip to the milk strip set up
set up there's a break in the clouds in the sky
lifting off in the space man get up
now this is a field trip, wave em goodbye
