Six String Rocketeer - Daily Planet

Caught in the crossfire while the battle raged down the hall

There were no bad guys, just a couple of consenting adults

I just had to get away, but I had no car to drive

So my body stayed inside my room

As I slipped into my mind

I’m going out where no one can find me Beyond this thickened air, where my spirit is free

I’m blasting off with a strum of my six string

Six String Rocketeer

Well, my getaway car is this beat up guitar

And I’m off to that place

Where I find my escape

Life as it happens is rarely the way that you planned

Roll with the punches or you’ll end up a mad, little man

A broken home was not the place they intended this to end

But the wounds were deep inside my soul

Let the healing begin

REPEAT CHORUS

I step on board as commander in chief

With Sgt.

Pepper in military motif

We walk this ship and I nod with a grin

At my friends Gordon Sumner and Mudslide Slim

«Take me to the pilot,"I demand

And they lead me to the Rocket Man

«Who's navigating?"I inquire

As Julio swoops down by the schoolyard

There my soul was as light as a feather

As the Piano Man had us all singing together

REPEAT CHORUS
