Rocket
(Nicky Chinn, Mike Chapman / Arr.: Ko-Do 2015)



Well-a well-a you changed your name to Abigail Rocket Blast
And then they lined you up for a Hollywood movie cast
With all them big cigars and motor cars
You thought you was a movie star
But Abigail Blast you sure are changing fast

When you were just sixteen you were knocking at the agent's door
Because  the silver screen Is what a movie queen lives for
They gave you minks and dreams in pinks and greens
You threw away your old blue jeans
But Abigail Blast they're using you
Come on

Chorus
Come on now Rocket
I'm gonna launch you soon
Come on now Rocket
You're gonna reach the moon
You're gonna take off soon
You gonna reach the moon
You know your time will come
I'll give you three two one
Now Rocket
I'm gonna launch you soon

I saw you sitting in the soda store where all the cast off stardust falls
Where they write their names on the floor and hang their photographs on the walls
Oh but to me you still got sweet sixteen
Written on your old blue jeans
I'm getting rid of Abigail Blast
I'll call you Rocket forget the past

Chorus
