And now I know "Spanish Harlem" are 
Not just pretty words to say 

I thought I knew but now I know that rose trees 
Never grow in New York city 

Oh, until you see this trash can dream come true 
You stand at the edge while people run you through 

And I thank the Lord, there's people out there like you 
I thank the Lord there's people out there like you

While Mona Lisa's and mad hatters
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers 
Turn around and say "good morning" to the night 
For unless they see the sky but they can't and that is why 
They know not if it's dark outside or light

While Mona Lisa's and mad hatters 
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers 
And turn around and say "good morning" to the night (to the night) 
For unless they see the sky but they can't and that is why 
They know not if it's dark outside or light
They know not if it's dark outside or light, oh 

She packed my bags last night pre-flight 
Zero hour 9 am, oh yeah
I'm gonna be high as a kite by then 

I miss the earth so much I miss my wife 
It's lonely out in space 
On such a timeless flight, timeless flight 

And I think it's gonna be a long long time 
Till touch down brings me round again to find 
I'm not the man they think I am at home 
Oh no I'm a rocket man 
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone, oh yeah 

Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids 
In fact it's cold as hell 
And there's no one there to raise them if you did 

And all this science I don't understand (don't, don't understand) 
It's just my job five days a week (ooh) 
A rocket man, oh rocket man 

And I think it's gonna be a long long time 
Till touch down brings me round again to find 
I'm not the man they think I am at home 
Oh no no no 
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone, yeah, yeah 

And I think it's gonna be a long long time 
Till touch down brings me round again to find 
I'm not the man they think I am at home 
Oh no no I'm a rocket man 
Rocket man burning out his fuse up here alone 

And I think it's gonna be a long, long time (oh) 
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time 
Yeah, I think it's gonna be a long, long time (a long, long time) 
Yes, I think it's gonna be a long, long time (long, long time) 

Oh, long, long time
Yeah, I think it's gonna be a long, long time 
Long, long time 

Mona Lisa's and mad hatters 
Mona Lisa's and mad hatters 
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers 
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers 

Turn around to say good morning to the night 
Mona Lisa's and mad hatters 
Sons of bankers, sons of lawyers
