      G              C
Well I wonder why it is
              Em                 D
that we have rascals rogues and losers
           G              C               Em             D  
We've got roustabouts rapscallions and a bucket load of boozers
           C               G               D  
We've got balladeers and blowhards of all sorts
           C
We've got poets priests and pirates 
D                   G
but we have no astronauts 

G                   D                    G
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (x3)  oh, oh, oh, oh,
G                   D
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh  (just listen to the song, it makes sense, trust me)

G
They say there was a space race 
         D             G
if there was I think I missed it
G                                   
From the earth up to the moon and back,
D                     G 
doesn't that take the biscuit
D
Well I wouldn't mind a little ride in zero gravity 
   C                                 D
as long as they could promise I'd be home in time for tea


chorus
            C                  D
I've got me two good legs if I wanna take a trip,
C               D
I've got no use for a rocket ship
     C
I'll walk if you don't mind
           D
It's how I always get around
           Em             D
I might be staring at the stars
           C                G
but I keep both feet on the ground
G                   D  
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
                  G
both feet on the ground
G                   D  
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
                          G
I've got both feet on the ground
G                   D                G    G                   D  
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh   Oh, oh, oh, oh   Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh    


          G
There's a great big giant vacuum
D               G
up there in the sky
G
Ah but where's the place to plug it in 
  D                G
I think it's all a lie
D
I've heard of Halley's Comet, And I'll tell you what I think
      C                          D
It's just a kind of chemical for cleaning out the sink


chorus
 

G
We've got no use for Sputnik
           D             G
We've got sponge to go around
G
And you'll never see the shuttle land 
       D                 G
on the streets of Newlyn Town
D
Well in the fields of "Vatimbly" there's not a launching pad in sight
      C                            D
We've got no "Mersa voyageurs" and we turned out all right


chorus
