Lyrics:


Homing the rocket

I'm not where you come from
Where you come from you speak with your wallet
Where you come from you're driven by logic
Where you come from your prize is to pocket

And I think it's amazing that I could have this with you
And I think it's amazing what the rocket can do
But I'm physically not impressed
And I'm spiritually not aroused
I could get more kicks from a Mexican dish
Than I'm ever gonna get if I'm haning around with you

Homing the rocket
Staying out homing the rocket

I'm not where you come from
Where you come from they leave in the morning
Where you come from they never say no
Where you come from they come and they go
As they please

And I think it's amazing that I could have this with you
And I think it's amazing what the rocket can do
But I'm physically not impressed
And I'm spiritually not aroused
I could get more thrills from a vitamin pill
Than I'm ever gonna get if I'm hanging around with you

And I'm sure it's amazing that I could have this with you
And I'm sure it's amazing what the rocket can do
But I'm physically not impressed
And I'm spiritually not aroused
I could get more thrills from a telephone bill
Than I'm ever gonna get if I'm hanging around with you

I'm hanging around with you

I won't hanging around with you

Homing the rocket

I won't be hanging around with you

Stayin' out homing the rocket

Review


Homing The Rocket feels soft and subtle on first listen, and indeed remains so until you start to actually listen to the lyrics! It's a tough little pop song arranged to sound rather airy and gentle. One of the best tracks on
Am I The Kinda Girl. And there's the classy rocket launching noise at the end.
Rating... 5/5

Take me back to the index.
Take me back to the Discography.
Take me back to the listing for Got To Get Your Love.
Take me on to the listing for I Just Love You.
