SPACE DOUBT
The stars are all so far away.
The sun is very bright.
Don’t make me take a rocket
out into the darkest night.
Don’t strap me, don’t fire me up,
don’t send me up above.
Don’t catapult me into space
far from the ones I love.
The planets are so empty
and those asteroids are rocky.
I’d rather be tucked up in bed
with a nice hot choccy.
Up here there is no oxygen,
no water, always drought.
Don’t make me be an astronaut.
Don’t make me feel spaced out!
