Lyrics
Starman - words and music by David Bowie
didn't know what time it was the lights were low. i leaned back on my radio. some cat was laying down some rock and roll, lotta soul he said. then that 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. 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. i had to phone someone so i picked on you. hey that's far out, so you heard him too. switch on your tv we may pick him up on channel two. look out your window i can see his light. if we can sparkle he may land tonight. don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in fright. 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.... la la la la, la la la la....
