Caught in the crossfire while the battle raged down the hall  There were no bad guys, just a couple of consenting adults  I just had to get away, but I had no car to drive  So my body stayed inside my room  As I slipped into my mind    CHORUS  I'm going out where no one can find me  Beyond this thickened air, where my spirit is free  I'm blasting off with a strum of my six string  Six String Rocketeer  Well, my getaway car is this beat up guitar  And I'm off to that place  Where I find my escape    Life as it happens is rarely the way that you planned  Roll with the punches or you'll end up a mad, little man  A broken home was not the place they intended this to end  But the wounds were deep inside my soul  Let the healing begin    REPEAT CHORUS    I step on board as commander in chief  With Sgt. Pepper in military motif  We walk this ship and I nod with a grin  At my friends Gordon Sumner and Mudslide Slim  "Take me to the pilot," I demand  And they lead me to the Rocket Man  "Who's navigating?" I inquire  As Julio swoops down by the schoolyard  There my soul was as light as a feather  As the Piano Man had us all singing together    REPEAT CHORUS
