Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Didn't know what time it was
The lights were low
I leaned back on my radio
Some cat was laying down
Some rock'n'roll lotta soul, he said
Then the loud sound did seem to fade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
That weren't no DJ
That was hazy cosmic jive
[Verse 2]
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile, he told me
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
[Verse 3]
I had to phone someone
So I picked on you
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too
Switch on the TV
We may pick him up on channel 2
Look out your window I can see his light
If we can sparkle he may land tonight
Don't tell your Poppa
Or he'll get us looked up in fright
[Verse 4]
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'll blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile, he told me
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
[Verse 5]
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile, he told me
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie
