Rocket's Tail Lyrics
Artist(Band):Kate Bush
Review The Song (1)Print the Lyrics
That November night, looking up into the sky,
You said,

"Hey, wish that was me up there--
It's the biggest rocket I could find,
And it's holding the night in its arms
If only for a moment.
I can't see the look in its eyes,
But I'm sure it must be laughing."

But it seemed to me the saddest thing I'd ever seen,
And I thought you were crazy, wishing such a thing.

I saw only a stick on fire,
Alone on its journey
Home to the quickening ground,
With no one there to catch it.

I put on my pointed hat
And my black and silver suit,
And I check my gunpowder pack
And I strap the stick on my back.
And, dressed as a rocket on Waterloo Bridge--
Nobody seems to see me.
Then, with the fuse in my hand,
And now shooting into the night
And still as a rocket,
I land in the river.

Was it me said you were crazy?
I put on my cloudiest suit,
Size 5 lightning boots, too.

'Cause I am a rocket
On fire.
Look at me go, with my tail on fire,
With my tail on fire,
On fire.
Hey, look at me go, look at me...

Review about Rocket's Tail

Striking | Reviewer: windowscreen | 8/17/2008

I don't own the album The Sensual World, but I have heard This Woman's Work, Sensual World, and Rocket's Tail. Rocket's Tail is so far my favorite. The Trio Bulgarka start the song off and right away set the powerfully spiritual mood. Kate Bush's whimsical but fiery voice can be heard almost as an undertone to the Trio. The end of the song kicks off with a gorgeous guitar riff. The lyrics, as well, are very moving.
I heard the song was named after Kate's cat, Rocket, but I'm not sure.
