lyrics

Got it off the ground
Just a little thrust for a big toy rocket
Did a gentle arc
Turning power off as space got voider

Took a siesta then
Worked out the aim of the plasma shooter
Got to save the Earth
Get the mission done before things go wilder

Oh oh… Rocket Boy (bis)

Killer asteroid
Heading fast towards Manhattan island
Shot the rock away
Had a piece of candy y regreso a casa

Zero grav is off
Had a lollipop during the re-entry
Back in time for school
Will do my homework then report to NASA

Oh oh… Rocket Boy (bis)

(Speaking) This is CMM´s senior correspondent Paul Margran, speaking to Rocket Boy in his first interview after saving the world from the menace of an impending impact with a huge asteroid. Tell us Rocket Boy, how does it feel being a hero, and how come you became an astronaut at such a young age?

I´m very proud of what I did
And it was fun to hit that rock
The only thing, man, that I missed
Up there above was, to be oh so far away from home

Now for your question´s second part
I´ll have to talk ´bout mom and dad
They used to take me in their arms
And made me fly, while saying I´ll be an astronaut
