Ground
control to Neil Armstrong.
Commencing countdown, engines on.
Check ignition and may God's love be with you.

This
is ground control to Neil Armstrong, you've really made the grade
Such a kind man, the papers say your heart was too big to bear.
Where you’re going no one will ever steal your hair.
Such a kind man, the papers say your heart was too big to bear.
Where you’re going no one will ever steal your hair.
Some say you punched some dude in the face,
For
questioning the Space Race,
But
you were a peaceful gentleman,
That
prick was Buzz Aldrin.
And
now you’re floating in a most peculiar way,
And the stars look very different today
And the stars look very different today
Sitting
in a tin can far above the world
You
put up your thumb, blotted out the Earth
Though you’re past one hundred thousand miles, it’s okay now to be still
You of all of us know which way to go [Up]
Just know we love you very much, just in case you didn’t know
Ground
control to Neil Armstrong, now that you’re dead, there's something wrong,
Can
you hear us Neil Armstrong?
Can
you hear us Neil Armstrong?
Can you...
Can you...
Once
you walked there, now you’re sitting on the moon,
You’re
gone and Earth is blue, and there’s nothing we can do.

Well, I think this rules.
