Bad Astronaut was an experimental/punk band founded in 2000 by Joey Cape, singer from Lagwagon. In Bad Astronaut, Cape explores a new style of pop, with lyrics often about deep and intricate personal matters.
Following the suicide of drummer and longtime friend Derrick Plourde (who was also the original drummer for Lagwagon) in 2005, Bad Astronaut has disbanded. Their third and final full-length album, entitled Twelve Small Steps, One Giant Disappointment, was released in 2006 on Fat Wreck Chords.

Verse: DABm I'm coming home, F#GDG I'm not bound anymore on the brink of nothing A I'm just starting something. DABmF#G I am dog boy, overwhelmed, unemployed, DGA An arsenal of outbursts but I'm just saying it first. DABmF#G I don't want to lose everything that we grew. DGA I'm not cutting you down, I'm just carrying the axe.
Chorus: GDF# Knowing it's half bad, knowing its a little sad BmF#GAF# and theres blood on our hands. I hate this. GDF# No one at the wheel, everyone is here to feel,
BmF#GABmAAA
Verse I'm coming home. We aren't sound anymore, I can't build a purpose in this falling structure. I'm not tearing it down, I just can't find the sound. I'm disarming the bomb before it goes off.
Chorus Knowing it's half bad, knowing it's all smiling sad. And the gun in my hand is empty. I am Mr. Guilt, everyone is here to feel.
BmF#GA x3
BmF#GAA I thank you all so much for my next trick, next trip, (DABmF#GDG: repeat to end with some variation) drive home.
