lyrics

I started off by making every move
Top brass at NASA would surely approve [of]
I did my homework, wasn't hard to get it
The time devoted, I did not regret it
I even did the extra credit
I trained for years and also months
I was an astronaut once

I fell in love like anybody would
We started going, it was going good [but]
He broke it off 'cause I was "too possessive"
My doctors said I got a bit "obsessive"
My life's been otherwise impressive
I pulled off one too many stunts
I was an astronaut once

I was an astronaut but not anymore
It's not the detail that I'm best known for
If you only know me from the news
You know me as the person who's
The gal who drove to Florida from Texas
to kidnap this new girlfriend of my exes
while wearing a diaper so I wouldn't have to make any pit stops along the way...

And that's the gist, but there's some nuance too
Some tiny details no one ever knew [oh]
I hope by sharing there's some understanding
Instead of all the constant reprimanding
My public record notwithstanding
I've gotten flack, I've felt the brunts
I was an astronaut
I was an astronaut
I was an astronaut once
