Space Oddity Songtext

Ground control to Major Tom
Ground control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
(10) Ground control (9) to Major Tom (8, 7, 6)
Connection (5) countdown
Engines on (4, 3, 2)
Check ignition (1) and may God's love be with you (lift off)

This is ground control to Major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know who's 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 the most peculiar way
And the stars look very differant today For here

Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
Though I'm past a hundred thousand miles
I'm feeling very still
And I think my spaceship know which way to go
Tell me wife I love her very much, she knows

Ground control to Major Tom
Your circuits dead, there's something wrong
Can you hear me Major Tom?
