I'M Leaving Eventually

I'm Leaving (eventually) I'm going to leave the planet never coming back wave you all a quick goodbye as I vanish into black Traverse the great elliptic skipping the asteroid belt on past the rings of Saturn before you'll even know I'd left Uranus, Neptune, Kuiper belt ignoring Pluto as I fly on through the icy-bound Ort cloud waving at Voyager as I cry Among the constellations sail my spaceship unafraid with my spaceman headphones listening to your whinging fade And when at last, there's silence not the smallest peep time will stop my mind grow quiet I might finally sleep But if I woke in my bed and that was all a dream I'd be awfully sad, disappointed in the very extreme
