everybody wants to be an astronaut

got out of bed this morning

i didn't sleep at all

today

i'm making history

i'm picking up my call

i'm going into space

man

don't know when i'm coming down

but i'll send you all a message

when i'm passing my old town

so tell me why is it

we're never happy?

everybody wants to be an astronaut

and take the long tall trail into the stars

everybody wants to show a brother what they've got

everybody wants to be an astronaut

i can feel my body shiver

the lights are everywhere

they marvel at my heartbeats

inside the atmosphere

and i'm looking at the world

in a way you never could

i knew i'd be a travelin' man

but i misunderstood

so tell me why is it

we're never happy?

cause everybody wants to be an astronaut

and take the long tall trail into the stars

everybody wants to show a brother what they've got

everybody wants to be an astronaut

don't you tell me that i'll never

i will show you what i'm made of

ready for the e.v.a

come on

let's get outside and play

what you say?

everybody wants to be an astronaut

and take the long tall trail into the stars

everybody wants to show a brother what they've got

everybody wants to be. la la la la la la la la. everybody wants to be a superstar

rock the world and make the cover of the time

cause everybody's happy when they're playing the guitar

everybody wants to be

everybody wants to be

everybody wants to be an astronaut
