Spaceman

You're out of your mind, you're out of your head
Get out of the house, get out of your bed
Look at yourself, she said
You need to start listening. Stop being led
And stop watching cartoons--that Flintstone Fred
(Take a) look at yourself, she said
You were always going to be a spaceman
You would take a rocket to the sky
But you just ended up takin' up a lot of space, man
You were taken for a great big ride
Read about life you're filling with dread
Opt for the easy, don't try instead
Lazy inside, she said
Your kids have passed you. They're way ahead
You spend your time drinking chillable red
When cut, it's how you bled
You were always going to be a spaceman
You would take a rocket to the sky
But you just ended up takin' up space, man
You were taken for a great big ride
...And yet you seem so happy, life in your cocoon
...Something simple, something good
You were always going to be a spaceman
You would take a rocket to the sky
But you just ended up takin' up a lot of space, man
You were taken for a great big ride
