Build Me a Rocketship

Build me a rocketship and take me away from here.
I want to live where there’s no such word as fear.

Build me a rocketship I think it would be great,
I want to live where there’s no such word as hate.

Build me a rocketship I think it could be fun,
To live on a planet orbiting another sun.

Build me a rocketship I would really love to find
A new home to live where everybody is kind.

If I had a rocketship, I wouldn’t hesitate
To leave this world behind and start a clean slate

If I had a rocketship I would take you away with me
And on this shiny new world we’d live as happy as could be
