Astronaut Lyrics
Not long ago when the astronauts discovered
That us down below are living on a little rock with no place to go
So much that they'll never know (ohhh, boy)
They just want to be back at home
The elephant sees the dangers of the jungle
The birds and the bees only know which way to fly
If only I knew how to fly (ohhh, boy)
The moment they got me to try (ah, ah, ahhh)
The fish in the sea have many things to tell me
Well what could they be? I'll never know
I had to go because I don't associate with fish
So I continue to roam (ohhh boy)
Looking to find me a home
[fading out] Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh....
That us down below are living on a little rock with no place to go
So much that they'll never know (ohhh, boy)
They just want to be back at home
The birds and the bees only know which way to fly
If only I knew how to fly (ohhh, boy)
The moment they got me to try (ah, ah, ahhh)
Well what could they be? I'll never know
I had to go because I don't associate with fish
So I continue to roam (ohhh boy)
Looking to find me a home

really? i really enjoy this song - i love the carnival-esque music in the middle. gives the song a completely different feel from the others on the album.
I have a feeling that this was meat to be about finding a place to belong......but it went very very wrong.
Oh my God. I hate this song.
This is the worst on the whole album.
