[00:02.70] Astronaut
[00:04.70] Just Jack
[00:06.70]
[00:10.70] Living in a bedsit
[00:11.66] Close to the world's end,
[00:13.02] Sitting in his y-fronts
[00:14.31] Sponging off his girlfriend Caaaaarey
[00:20.06] She says life's right there babe
[00:21.42] Should be getting on with it
[00:23.07] xxx better tell her that you've all but squandered it
[00:26.43] It's siiiilly
[00:28.86]
[00:30.01] And his relatives all think that it's a shame
[00:34.94] And they'd say that it's a mystery if his Dad wasn't exactly the same
[00:42.29] The same
[00:43.91]
[00:46.12] He's been a space cadet for years
[00:48.26] Says one day he'll be an astronaut
[00:51.41] Floating in the hemisphere
[00:53.73] And looking down on Hampton Court
[00:56.14] But he's always late
[00:58.10] And knows one day he'll graduate
[01:00.45] Then he'll be floating in the ozone
[01:03.50] High above the empire
[01:05.93] High above the empire
[01:07.57] State state state state
[01:09.26] He's living in a
[01:09.86] State state state state
[01:11.60] He's in a proper
[01:12.41] State state state state
[01:14.12] They've got him in a
[01:14.94] State state state state
[01:16.57]
[01:17.35] Sofa sufer, likes a little gamble
[01:19.78] A few dodgy debts that he says he can handle
[01:23.52] Maaaaaybe
[01:27.26] Never not xxx
[01:28.46] Stays in most nights
[01:29.72] Jostling to pixelated princesses on websites
[01:33.45] Franticly
[01:35.70]
[01:36.85] And his family all say that it's a waste
[01:41.53] And they wash their mouths out with self righteousness
[01:45.74] To hide the bitter taste
[01:49.08] The taste
[01:50.63]
[01:52.89] He's been a space cadet for years
[01:55.07] Says one day he'll be an astronaut
[01:58.14] Floating in the hemisphere
[02:00.55] And looking down on Hampton Court
[02:02.98] But he's always late
[02:04.94] And knows one day he'll graduate
[02:07.24] Then he'll be floating in the ozone
[02:10.23] High above the empire
[02:12.83] High above the empire
[02:14.27] Carey's love is cold and congealed
[02:17.32] Like last night's take-away
[02:18.83] And she feels
[02:19.83] She might have to do some kind
[02:22.77] Of midnight flit
[02:23.99] All there is to say has been said
[02:26.96] And as the sky's turning pink
[02:29.36] She leaves her keys by the sink
[02:31.77] And takes one last look at our hero's face
[02:35.20] He's been a space cadet for years
[02:37.16] Says one day he'll be an astronaut
[02:40.02] Floating in the hemisphere
[02:42.76] And looking down on Hampton Court
[02:44.97] But he's always late
[02:46.98] And knows one day he'll graduate
[02:49.43] Then he'll be floating in the ozone
[02:52.33] High above the empire
[02:54.81] High above the empire
[02:57.36] High above the empire state
[03:00.24] Oh oh la la la la
[03:05.06] Oh oh la la la la
[03:09.98] Oh oh la la la la
[03:13.69] Now life goes on
[03:14.64] It will be played out
[03:16.47] But something's s'posed to happen man before the fade out
[03:18.63] Now life goes on
[03:19.89] It will be played out
[03:21.15] But something's s'posed to happen man before the fade out
[03:23.57] Now life goes on
[03:24.49] It will be played out
[03:25.98] But something's s'posed to happen man before the fade out
[03:29.69] Before the fade out
[03:32.22] Before the fade out
[03:34.63] Before the fade out
[03:37.12] Before the fade out
[03:39.57] Before the fade out
[03:41.74]
