Think you´re in a time machine
Or is it a time bomb
Think you left me here behind
Perhaps you´ve got it wrong

You´re hanging out with space cadets
You´ve got to understand
You´re crazy for pop astronauts
You´re going to crash land

Running round this mirror maze
Through the silver days you ran
Feeling so much outer-spaced
You´ve taken all you can
Wonder where it´s taking you
Plying the firebrand
Gonna end up afterburned
It´s getting out of hand

Flying through the stratosphere
It´s what you had to do
You had to get away from here
Take the Jupiter 2

You´re rocking out on rocket ships
You´ve got a head full of sound
You´re cruising with pop astronauts
You´re going to crash down

If you find you swim too far
You´ll go below and drown
Maybe when you´ve seen it all
You won´t like what you´ve found
While you´re waiting here on earth
You´ll find it´s a small town
The little bit we got here´s
Not enough to go around

You´re in a spiral galaxy
Or is it a tailspin
Zero in on what you want
Cuz spacelings don´t give in

You´re racing in a death machine
It makes me wanna shout
You´re cruising with pop asronauts
You´re going to crash out

You run from plastic meteors
I see without a doubt
You think you really got it all
And what it´s all about
I think you´d better add it up
And see what it amounts
But what you think the countdown
Is just you down for the count

Pop astronauts
Pop astronauts
Pop astronauts
Pop astronauts
