Well, we can't actually be stranded here. Death might even be a flying saucer to other worlds. I know that faith is. If you lose faith it's the same as running out of gas. Of course, I use electro-magnetics... and faith.

Let me ask you this; what is the story behind the question that is asking me what the story behind the song is. Moving right along......

Rocket ships gonna take me away
repeat
repeat
bring me back on a better day

I don't need no nuclear bomb
to keep my sweet white body from harm
and I don't need no more police
making it safe for me to walk the streets where I live

Chorus

Rocket ships not hard to find
check out the space stations in your mind
grab your lady and all your friends
take a ride to where the big dream ends and you're gone.

Chorus

Rocket ship is an old refrain
From the Golden Fleece
To the Golden Main
you're a dragon of love with a flaming tail
and the unlucky hero locked up in a jail
keep believing

Chorus

Rocket ship you're a ship of gold
You ain't been made so you can't be sold
and everybody can fly today
don't you worry bout how
You'll find the way hey... hey

Rocket ships gonna take you away
Rocket ships gonna take me away
Rocket ships gonna take us away
Bring us back on a better day.
Don't be too far away
Lord
Don't be too far away
Don't be too far away
