Astronaut In Bagdad (English Version)
Eyes full of fear, staring at you
Hooded under the sun
An alien place, and the look on her face
Cold as the flash of a gun
Eyes full of fear reddened with dust
That clings to us like glue
We're going on in, finger on the trigger
Before they make a move
Astronaut in Baghdad
Exploding rodeo
Everything's wrong, I don't belong
Should be in Idaho
Astronaut in Baghdad
A stranger lost in space
The God of the dead is our daily bread
We never see his face
The colonel sworn that winning the war
Was just a matter of time
There'll be medals around, but he's not on the ground
Putting his life on the line
Shimmering heat on bulletproof steel
Each step could be your last
Jerry was singing some old '60s song
When he got caught in the blast
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
Exploding rodeo
Rosalyn, please wait for me
Back home in Ohio
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
A stranger out in space
We don't really fight, they hit us at night
Their God says that "Paradise waits"
Astronaut in Baghdad
Exploding rodeo
Everything's wrong, I don't belong
Should be in Idaho
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
A stranger lost in space
The God of the dead is our daily bread
We never see his face
(Astronaut)
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
A stranger out in space
We don't really fight, they hit us at night
Their God says that "Paradise waits"
Hooded under the sun
An alien place, and the look on her face
Cold as the flash of a gun
Eyes full of fear reddened with dust
That clings to us like glue
We're going on in, finger on the trigger
Before they make a move
Astronaut in Baghdad
Exploding rodeo
Everything's wrong, I don't belong
Should be in Idaho
Astronaut in Baghdad
A stranger lost in space
The God of the dead is our daily bread
We never see his face
The colonel sworn that winning the war
Was just a matter of time
There'll be medals around, but he's not on the ground
Putting his life on the line
Shimmering heat on bulletproof steel
Each step could be your last
Jerry was singing some old '60s song
When he got caught in the blast
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
Exploding rodeo
Rosalyn, please wait for me
Back home in Ohio
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
A stranger out in space
We don't really fight, they hit us at night
Their God says that "Paradise waits"
Astronaut in Baghdad
Exploding rodeo
Everything's wrong, I don't belong
Should be in Idaho
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
A stranger lost in space
The God of the dead is our daily bread
We never see his face
(Astronaut)
Astronaut in Baghdad (Astronaut)
A stranger out in space
We don't really fight, they hit us at night
Their God says that "Paradise waits"
