Didnโ€™t know what time it was the lights

were low-ow-ow.

I leaned back on my radio-o-o.

Some cat was layinโ€™ down some

rock โ€™nโ€™ roll, โ€œโ€™lotta soulโ€, he said.

Then the loud sound did seem to fa-a-ade.

Came back like a slow voice on a wave of pha-a-ase.

That werenโ€™t no D.J., that was

hazy cosmic jive.

Thereโ€™s a starman waiting in the sky.

Heโ€™d like to come and meet us,

but he thinks heโ€™d blow our minds.

Thereโ€™s a starman waiting in the sky.

Heโ€™s told us not to blow it,

โ€™cause he knows itโ€™s all worthwhile.

He told me:

โ€œLet the children lose it.

Let the children use it.

Let all the children boogie.โ€

I had to phone someone so I picked on you-ou-ou.

Hey, thatโ€™s far out so you heard him too-oo-oo!

Switch on the TV.

We may pick him up on Channel Two.

Look out your window I can see his ligh-igh-ight.

If we can sparkle he may land tonigh-igh-ight.

Donโ€™t tell your poppa

or heโ€™ll get us locked up in fright.
