I did n't
know what time it was,
the lights were low
I leaned back from my radio
Some cat was layin', dancin'
Rock and roll, that's what I'm sayin'
Then the loud sound,
it seemed to fade
Came back like a slow voice
on a wave of fades
That weren't no DJ
that was hazy cosmic jazz
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 follow
Cause you know it's all worth fighting for
You got the children losing
You got the children losing
You got all the children losing
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 2
Look out your window, I can see his light
If we can sparkle, he may land tonight
Don't tell your papa,
or you'll get us locked up inside
There's a star man wait
ing in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us,
but he thinks he'll blow our minds
There's a star man waiting in the sky
He's told us not to know him
Cause you know the dark
world quite don't
You let the children use it
You let the children use it
Let other children do it
Star man waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starlight waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's our request only
Natural music, natural music
That all the children will hear
La, la, la, la, la, la,
la...
Oh, oh, oh...
