Spaceman

So, you say I can be anything
All I gotta do is put my mind to it
Living in the land of freedom and opportunity
Hey man, you gotta love that
I can be a doctor or a lawyer
Or I can play one on TV
You know 1 can even run for President
But who wants to be that man, not me!

I wanna be a spaceman rocking around the sun
Just get me out of here before I hurt someone
I want to land lightly with both feet on the moon
Tether me tenderly I want to be a spaceman

Now my ambitions are not that lofty
Wait, let me try to explain
I want to be a functional member of society
Is that too much to attain?

Now lookie here, I tried to be Mr. Perfect
Sweet and kind to everyone
Now I'm holding on to my wife for dear life '
Cause I can't even hold my tongue

Do you see the gravity of my situation?
No wonder I'm so tired and bored
It's hanging over me like a bad conversation
This life is too much for me to afford
