Space Oddity
Lyrics
John Hutchinson: Nice, nice
David Bowie: Didn’t sound nice to me. Let’s remember to do that. Ok, Hutch
(Begins playing)
DB: Ope, hun. Yeah?
JH: What a single!
DB: We’re recording, now. Wait, Christie, don’t talk.
Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills
And put your helmet on
(10) Ground Control (Nine) to Major Tom (Eight)
(Seven, six) Commencing (Five) countdown
Engines on (Four, three, two)
Check ignition (One)
And may God’s love (Blast off) be with you
This is Major Tom to Ground Control
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
Though I’m passed 100, 000 miles
I’m feeling very still
And I think my spaceship know what I must do
And I think my life on earth is never through
Ground Control to Major Tom
You’re off your course, direction’s wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear?
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the Moon
The planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do
