When he was born the doc said What's this
He's much too small it's like he's weightless
When he turned six they ran some tests
They said It's for science it's patriotic

Ah let's send him where no one else has gone

And after all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon do circles round the Sun

When he was twelve the time had come then
And with his eyes he said he loved them
Then came the suits then came the government
She stood and cried she could not keep him

Ah let's send him where no one else has gone

And after all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon do circles round the Sun

Then he came back yeah he came back
He came back a smile as big as the whole world
The doctors were shocked by his vital signs
She said Would you like to go home now

Ah let's send him where no one else has gone

And after all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon do circles around the Sun
