That other song about wanting to be an astronaut

I’ve got a song by Roger, Roll  in my head…  I Want to Be (Click here to hear it).

I’ve got tons of work to do for my graduate class (and I mean TONS!) but right now I just want to transcribe the lyrics… so here we go…

I want to be an astronaut,
on the moon with my guitar.
Ohhh ohhh it will never happen,
but that’s all right,
‘cuz I have you.
I want to be a jedi knight,
in the constellations.
Ohhh ohhh it will never happen,
but that’s all right,
‘cuz I have you.
You are the girl,
I will show my appre’tion,
just a little aggression,
just a little impression of my feelings.
Oooooooooo ooooooooo ooooooo ooooooo ooooooooh
Oooooooooo ooooooooo ooooooo ooooooo ooooooooh
I want to be a  sailor, in a boat, on the sea…
Ohhh ohhh, it will never happen,
but that’s all right,
‘cuz I have you…
You are the girl,
I will show
my appre’tion,
just a little aggression,
just a little impression of my feelings.
Oooooooooo ooooooooo ooooooo ooooooo ooooooooh
Oooooooooo ooooooooo ooooooo ooooooo ooooooooh

I don’t know why, but songs like that just stick with me sometimes.

If you are into music, you should check out “The Sixty One“.  (If they ask, you can tell ’em SHC1970 sent you.)
