about

Many of us had grand aspirations of careers in aeronautics, space travel and what have you when we were younger. Now we’ve reached the constant anxiety ridden heck of adulthood we’ve been truly dumped into the oblivion of space, ejected via a monotonous pair of chug chords and screeching synths

lyrics

LYRICS
So you wanna be a Spaceman
Forget the moon let’s hit the stars
Take up gardening on Mars when you were younger
Yeah when you were younger
So you wanna be a Spaceman?
Forget the moon let’s hit the stars
Take up gardening on Mars when you were younger
When you were younger

It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy

So you wanna be a Sports Star
Scoring screamers left and right
The final Knockout in that fight
When you were younger
Yeah when you were younger
So you wanna be a Sports Star
Scoring screamers left and right
The final Knockout in that fight
When you were younger
Yeah when you were younger

It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy
It’s not that easy

So now you’re a spaced man
Forget the Moon let’s hit the bars
Take up hiding all those scars
Now that you’re older
Now that you’re older

Now you’re pushing through you’re trauma
Escaping left and right
You’ve been ejected from the flight
Now that you’re older
Now that you’re older

So you wanna be a Spaceman
So you wanna be a Spaceman
So you wanna be a Spaceman
So you wanna be a Spaceman
So you wanna be a Spaceman
So you wanna be a Spaceman
So you wanna be a Spaceman
So you wanna be a Spaceman
