Intro

Verse 1

Didn't know what time it was the lights were low-ow-ow.

I lean back on my radio-o-o

Some cat was laying down some rock'n'roll,

 'Lotta soul' he said.

Verse 2

Then the loud sound did seem to fa-a-ade

Came back like a slow voice on a wave of pha-a-ase

That weren't no DJ that was hazy cosmic jive.

Chorus

 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 blow it

 'Cause he knows it all worthwhile,

He told me,

"Let the children lose it, let the children use it,

Let the children boogie."

Verse 3

Well I had to phone someone so I picked on you-ou-ou

Hey that's far out, so you heard him too-oo-oo

Switch on the TV we may pick him on Channel 2.

Verse 4

Look out your window I can see his li-i-ight,

If we can sparkle he may land toni-i-ight,

Don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in a fright.

Chorus

 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 blow it

 'Cause he knows it all worthwhile,

He told me,

"Let the children lose it, let the children use it,

Let the children boogie."
