[Verse 1: Henderson]
Well, it's time to start the rocket,
And it's gonna be a trip so far away.
But the galaxy will be waiting,
Planet Earth will be seeing the light of day.

[Verse 2: Henderson]
And it's time to start the touring,
All the stars that we've been storing in the night,
We know moonlight will be shining,
On the sun that is so hotter and so bright.

[Chorus: Darius]
Yes, it's time to start the rocket,
And today's the day we make it to the moon.
We don't know when we'll be back to Planet Earth,
But I hope we land there by noon.

[Chorus 2: Darius]
We've gotta do some exploring, find what's left on all our storage,
Beware of the laser beams that they shoot.
So it's time to start the rocket, but before we start the rocket, the only thing we need is our space suit.

[Verse 3: Darius]
Well, it's time to start the rocket. And the aliens seem to be invading Mars.
They are traveling in an unidentified flying object that is toward the stars.

[Verse 4: Darius]
But I can hear the Martians yipping,
As they say that there'll be so many things to explore,
So we'll let the rocket zoom into the air,
And into outer space once more.

[Chorus: Darius]
Yes, it's time to start the rocket,
And today's the day we make it to the moon.
We don't know when we'll be back to Planet Earth,
But I hope we land there by noon.

[Chorus 2: Darius]
We've gotta do some exploring, find what's left on all our storage,
Beware of the laser beams that they shoot.
So it's time to start the rocket, but before we start the rocket, the only thing we need is our space suit.
