Circles Around the Sun

When he was born the doc said What's this He's much too small it's like he's weightless When he turned six they ran some tests They said It's for science it's patriotic
Ah let's send him where no one else has gone
And after all he cannot speak or walk Let's send him at the moon do circles round the Sun
When he was twelve the time had come then And with his eyes he said he loved them Then came the suits then came the government She stood and cried she could not keep him
Ah let's send him where no one else has gone
And after all he cannot speak or walk Let's send him at the moon do circles round the Sun
Then he came back yeah he came back He came back a smile as big as the whole world The doctors were shocked by his vital signs She said Would you like to go home now
Ah let's send him where no one else has gone
And after all he cannot speak or walk Let's send him at the moon do circles around the Sun
