Starman - Boy Eats Drum Machine

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

That 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 'cause he knows it’s all worthwhile

He told me, «Let the children lose it, let the children use it

Let the children lose 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

Switched 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 poppa 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 the children lose it, let all the children boogie»
