Song lyrics

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 weren't 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'll blow our minds,
There's a starman waiting in the sky,
He's toid 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 all the children boogie.'

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 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'll blow our minds,
There's a starman waiting in the sky,
He's toid 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 all the children boogie.'
