Rocket's Tail

Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
That November night, looking up into the sky You said hey wish that was me up there It's the biggest rocket I could find And it's holding the night in its arms If for only a moment I can't see the look in its eyes But I'm sure it must be laughing But it seemed to me the saddest thing I'd ever seen And I thought you were crazy wishing such a thing I saw only a stick on fire Alone on its journey Home to the quickening ground With no one there to catch it I put on my pointed hat And my black and silver suit And I check my gunpowder pack And I strap the stick on my back And dressed as a rocket on Waterloo Bridge Nobody seemed to see me Then with the fuse in my hand And now shooting into the night And still as a rocket I land in the river Was it me said you were crazy? I put on my cloudiest suit Size five lightning boots too 'Cause I am a rocket On fire Look at me go with my tail on fire Tail on fire On fire
