Lyrics:

When he was born
The doc said, "What's this?
He's much too small
It's like he's weightless"

When he turned six
They ran some tests
They said it's for science
It's patriotic

Ah let's send him where no one else has gone
And after all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon
Do circles round the sun

When he was twelve
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

Ah let's send him where no one else has gone
And after all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon
Do circles round the sun

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, oh, oh
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, oh, oh
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

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 go home now?"

Ah let's send him where no one else has gone
And after all he cannot speak or walk
Let's send him at the moon
Do circles around the sun
