Laika lyrics

Artist  : Moxy Fruvous 
Song : Laika



 Send "Laika" Ringtone to your Cell 

 When I was 3, my mother said to me
Eat up your greens and say your grave
While on TV they put a dog in space
And left here there... you should've seen her
face
When I was 5, the dream was still alive
And Walter Cronkite said: "One day we'll earn our
daily bread
Conducting things in outer space"
But still on earth I thrive... and you pretend
I'm not alive
        And walk by with my substitute
        While I fasten the oxygen valve on my
space suit
When I was 8, we shared a cloakrack - it was
great
And I pretended I had so much on my plate
I had a speech to write, about moonshot
trajectory
And during phonics class, perfected my delivery
        Now the band's playing "Hail to the
Chief"
        While my capsule's out floating by some
tropical reef
all the experts can agree on, regarding your
motives
in the cape canaveral crash... is that they know
nothing
        it puzzles me so...
Now I'm full grown, and I've a spacecraft of my
own
But there you sit, still upon your Earthly throne
Hey darling, throw this 'space-pup' a bone
Don't touch that dial, don't hang up that phone
