Space Oddity Songtext

Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Ground Control to Major Tom (nine, eight, seven)
Commencing countdown (six, five)
Engines on (four, three)
Check ignition (two)
And may God′s love be with you (one, take off)

This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it′s time to leave the capsule if you dare

This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I'm stepping through the door
And I'm floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today


For here am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there′s nothing left to do

Though I′m past one hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much
She knows

Ground Control to Major Tom, your circuit′s dead
There's something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear?

Am I floating in the tin can?
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there′s nothing I can do
