SEND ME UP IN A ROCKET
(tune: Take me out to the ballgame [sorta])

Send me up in a rocket
Shoot me to outer space
Load the potatoes and let them blast
I don't care if they blow out my ass!
Soon it's three, two one, and then take-off!
If it doesn't work it's a shame!
Test it out? what the heck, it's only my neck!
In this space-race game!

When I was just a wee lad
I liked to make things go boom
Made them spuds go 'most 200 feet
That was a record that no-one has beat!
Now I'll ride, ride, ride in my mixer
at least to ten thousand feet
And potatoes, pa-tooties out rockets will shooty
In the space-race game!

Send me up in a rocket
Shoot me to outer space
Load the potatoes and let them blast
I don't care if they blow out my ass!
Soon it's three, two one, and then take-off!
If it doesn't work it's a shame!
Test it out? what the heck, it's only my neck!
In this space-race game!
