To be an Astronaut
To be an astronaut would be fun
Rocket to the moon or blown to kingdom come
Either way you'll see the stars
Whole, one would hope, or in many parts
Distance is irrelevant, for this we cannot yet comprehend
Time, on the other hand, is guaranteed one day to end
So there you have it, life's history captured in a spacemans helmet bowl
Except to say farewell or, as the Americans would say, 'goodbye yoll'.
