Spaceship Races

Baby, you're so frazzled

Spinnin' around in a busby swirl

With all that razzle-dazzle

I know at heart you want a down-home girl

Aw, ya know I want to take you to the spaceship races

Watch 'em do a few laps around the sun

But if you don't go in for far-off places

I'll take you home with me

When the day is done

Baby, you're so scattered

Your span of attention is shrinkin' fast

Your brain's been battered

By all the disappointments of the recent past

Aw, ya know I want to take you to the spaceship races

Watch 'em do a few laps around the sun

But if you don't go in for far-off places

I'll take you home with me

Didn't I see you walkin' on Main Street

Lookin' in the windows

Waitin' by turnstiles

Thinking of things you thought you'd like to buy

Living off dreams stored up in film cans

Looking at screens just waiting your turn while

You looked up and saw a rocket in the sky

Aw, ya know I want to take you to the spaceship races

Watch 'em do a few laps around the sun

But if you don't go in for far-off places

I'll take you home with me

When the day is done

When the day is done
