Ground control to Major Tom
Ground control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground control to Major Tom
(Ten, nine, eight, seven )
Commencing count down engines on
(Six, five, four, three )
Check ignition, and may god's love be with you
(Two, one, lift 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 its 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 I can do
(Instrumental break)
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
Here am I floating round my tin can
Far above the moon
Planet earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
(Instrumental ending )
