When he was born
The doc said, "What's this?
He's much too small
It's like he's weightless"
When he turned 6
They ran some tests
They said it's for science
It's patriotic
Oh let's send him where no one else has gone
After all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon
He'll do circles around the sun
When he was 12
The time had come then
And with his eyes
He said he loved them
In came the suits
In came the government
She stood and cried
She could not keep him
Oh let's send him where no one else has gone
After all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon
Do circles around the sun
Well he came back, yeah he came back
He came back with a smile as big as the whole world
The doctors were shocked by his vital signs
She said, "Would you like to come home now?"
Oh let's send him where no one else has gone
After all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon
Do circles around the sun
