Little Spaceman
(You are listening to the song as performed by Dave Bourne)
Goodnight, little spaceman, on your way,
Watch out for the shooting stars.
It’s a four-point-nine until takeoff time.
Away you go
With a blast off full to the gravity pull.
Away you go!
All the way up there in the stratosphere air, go sailing.
I can follow your flight by the rocketing light you’re trailing.
Watch out, little spaceman, check your course
On the calculate freefall run
Through the earthbound orb like a satellite sword
And dream and dream
Of a starlit ride with the universe guide
And dream and dream
Of a starlit ride with the universe guide,
And dream and dream.
Good night, little spaceman, off to bed.
(Whoop! Pardon that earthly phrase.)
I forgot your bed was a meteorite sled.
Away you go!
On your nightly trip in your interworld ship,
Away you go!
Keep your pentylene feed up to all of that speed of soaring
Like a fiery force in a solarly course, go roaring.
Watch out, little spaceman, once again
It’s a freefall, run back home.
How I wish that I were a part of your sky
Of thrill, I will
For perhaps someday in a magical way,
I will! I will!
For perhaps someday in a magical way,
I will! I will!
