lyrics

Every weekday morning I would wake up
Turn on the black & white tv in my room
Watch Battle of the Planets at 7:30
Then Inspector Gadget at 8:00
Then Astro Boy at 8:30...

But school started at 9:00 am
So I'd watch Astro to the very last second
Right before the ads & credits rolled
And run as fast as I could to school

No desire to get to school early
Would rather watch cartoons
Escape into those other worlds
In the safety of my bedroom

A couple times I got to school late
Just a minute or two, but that was enough
Teacher was phoning my parents
And I was no longer allowed to watch Astro

So I started to go to school early
Then discovered I had a couple friends
We could wander the schoolyard together
Talk about Astro Boy and G-Force

And that wasn't so bad...
