about

Based on a true story...or at least a "semi-real" person that proved "interesting".

lyrics

There’s a boy from outer space
And he’s called the Rocket Boy
He speaks in a different tongue than you
And he writes in funny little things

He’s drinking wine again
From the nipple of Christ
He swings a cross around
Tries to knock you down

Heaven Help us here he comes
Through the stars in outer space
Got a fully articulated power glove
And he writes in funny little things

He’s drinking wine again
From the nipple of Christ
He swings a cross around
Tries to knock you down

There’s a boy from outer space
And he’s called the Rocket Boy
He speaks in a different tongue than you
And he writes in funny little things

He’s drinking wine again
From the nipple of Christ
He swings a cross around
Tries to knock you down
