I've never seen the sky so angry

Star child

You've got to do something about these

Mind crimes

The shuffling feet and sad expressions

They don't go, they don't go

I thought you came down from heaven

 To save souls

These angry men are into making

Bad seeds

The only thing we had they're taking

Now love needs

Needs a little, needs a little

Five thousand million people

To spread joy, spread a little joy

I thought you came down from heaven to save us

I thought you came but you just don't take us

Chorus

]

Somewhere in the world tonight

There's a fire blazing bright

Keeping warm the superman

Sent to us to save the land

Somewhere in the world today

A hungry one will kneel to pray

Wishing all the while to see

Star child

I've ssen the preachers on the TV

In white suits

With precious stones they're studded into

Their boots

Can you take the money, can you take their money?

I don't knwo who to believe

Is it them or you?

I thought you came down from heaven to save us

I thought you came but you just don't take us

Chorus

Starchild

Got to see him now

Bridges

When you gonna come, when you gonna come

 You've got to save us from what we've begun

 From what we've begun

 So long coming down

Star child

Chorus

Somewhere in the world tonight

In the world tonight

Somewhere in the world tonight

In the world tonight

You know that somewhere in the world tonight

There's a superman

There's a superman and he's coming down to see you, baby

There's a superman coming

There's a superman coming

[Repeat with ad-libs to end]
