Rocket Lyrics - Xtc

Cape Canaveral Florida, ready for takeoff stages 

Zoom destination an isolated planet Mars 

On which observed many relics of past ages 

On return despite rocks no spars 

2nd destination world's largest planet Jupiter 

From there obtained some ancient relics 

When returned at base -- we want Hoopiter! 

And we would like some fancy cow's milk 

3rd destinations many ringed planet Saturn 

While there darted among the rings 

At base had a few thoughts of astral matter 

Again at base a welcoming with sings 

4th zoom destination to an isolated planet Neptune 

Whose surface was clear of any vegetation 

At base quote -- would like large dirigible balloon 

During when there was no hesitation
