Please Mr. Kennedy Lyrics
[All]
10...9...8...7.6.5...4...3...2...
[Adam Driver]
One second please!
[Chorus]
Please Mr. Kennedy (Uh oh!)
I don't wanna go (please don't shoot me into outer space)
P-P-Please Mr. Kennedy (Uh oh!)
I don't wanna go (please don't shoot me into outer space)
[Verse 1: Justin Timberlake & Oscar Isaac]
I sweat when they stuff me in the pressure suits
Bubble helmet, Flash Gordon boots
Nowhere up there in gravity zero (outer...space)
I need to breathe, don't need to be a hero (outer...space)
Are you reading me loud and clear?
Oh!
[Chorus]
Please Mr. Kennedy (Uh oh!)
I don't wanna go (please don't shoot me into outer space)
P-P-Please Mr. Kennedy (Uh oh!)
I don't wanna go (please don't shoot me into outer space)
[Verse 2: Justin Timberlake & Oscar Isaac]
I'm six-foot two, and so perhaps you'll
Tell me how to fit into a five foot capsule
I won't be known as man of the century
If I burn up upon reentry
Gotta red-blooded wife with a healthy libido (outer...space)
You'll lose her vote if you make her a widow (outer...space)
And who'll play catch out in the back with our kid?
Oh!
[Chorus]
Please Mr. Kennedy (Uh oh!)
I don't wanna go (please don't shoot me into outer space)
[All]
Countdown!
10...9...8...7.6.5...4...3...2...
[Adam Driver]
Oh no!
[Chorus]
Please Mr. Kennedy (Uh oh!)
I don't wanna go (please don't shoot me into outer space)
P-P-Please (oh please!)
P-P-Please (oh please!)
Please (oh please!)
Please don't shoot me into outer space!
P-P-Please (oh please!)
Please (oh please!)
Please don't shoot me into outer space!
Please Mr. Kennedy!
