| Sitting up here watching all the lights blink below |
| The earth is turning, why does it go so slow? |
| Thinking about the girl I left behind |
| Houston can you hear me, or have I lost my mind? |
| Why me? Why me? |
| I was waiting on the pad, all systems were go |
| The man up in the tower was enjoying the show |
| Then I got this feeling that I never had before |
| Hey let me out of here, what am I here for? |
| Why me? Why me? |
| There must be a thousand other guys |
| Must be some other way to look good in your eyes |
| Why am I up here? What do they see in me? |
| Must be one thousand other places to be |
| Why me? Why Me? |
| The last man to be here was never heard from again |
| He won’t be back this way till 2010 |
| Now I’m riding on a fountain of fire |
| With my back to the earth, I go higher and higher |
| Why me? Why me? |
| There must be a thousand other guys |
| Must be some other way to look good in your eyes |
| Why am I up here? What do they see in me? |
| Must be one thousand other places to be |
| Why me? Why me? |
| Take anyone but me. Why me? |
| Take anyone but me. Why me? |
