Astronaut grounded:
Twinkle twinkle little star
Shine brighter for I can not see who you are.
I am a man on earth looking up at you.
But you are fussy,
Are you as bright as you say you are?
Or is the light pollution holding you back from who you are.
You would think thirty million would be enough to see.
But the ship prices keep going up, I promise you.
Im sorry little star
I really do see you,
But you must understand that youre a dream that cant be reached alone,
This nation does not see you
Please, dont blame them
In the heart of the city money is blinding.
And war is the past, present and the future.
I will see you one dayIf the budget allows it.
But for now I will see you from a far.
My twinkle twinkle little star.
