Oh oh oh...

Didn't know what time it was

The lights were low

I leaned back on my radio

Some cat was layin 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

There was 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

Cos 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 the 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 pop 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

Cos 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...
