Ground Control to Major Tom'

Ground Control to Major Tom'

Take your protein pills and put your helmet on

Ten

Ground Control to Major Tom

Commencing countdown' engines on

Check igition and may God's love be with you

This is Ground Control to Major Tom'

You've really made the grade

And the papers want to know who shot you where

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 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

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 circuits dead' there's something wrong

Can you hear me' Major Tom

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 "
