F                             Bbm
We've got the greatest job on Earth
                      F
And we're not even on Earth
                    Bbm
We're orbiting the world, you see

Collecting space debris
F
Expended rockets, expired satellites
Bbm                                            F
Circling the globe, endangering space flight

We're the guys cleaning up the mess
Bbm
Putting astronauts' families' fears to rest

Am               Dm                      Gm
You wouldn't believe the premium on my life insurance policy
Am                       Dm
Even a paint chip would take off my arm
G                             C
Traveling at orbital velocity


[Hook]
F                          Am
Collectin' space junk, space waste, space stuff
Dm                                C
We make it safe for shuttles to fly
F                          Am
We're trash men, weightless trash men!
Dm                                C
Cleaning up the crap you left behind


[Verse 2]
F                             Bbm
We got hit by Soviet trash last year
                        F
From the cosmonauts on Mir
                            Bbm
But our worst memory was when we

Were sprayed by frozen pee
F                            Bbm
Here's some old bag of  toiletries (What's in it?)
                                 F
Sunscreen and hydrocortisone cream
                                Bbm
And the ashes of Gene RoddenberrY
                                  F
Ah! Tom Hank's script from Apollo 13!

You wouldn't believe the premium on my life insurance policy
Am                   Dm
Even a toenail would cut off my head
G                    C
Traveling at orbital velocity


[Hook]
F                          Am
Collectin' space junk, space waste, space stuff
Dm                                C
Living the cosmic custodian life
F                  Am
We're trash men, weightless trash men!
Dm               C                   F
Scouring space while trying not to die!
