| Goodbye love |
| Didn't know what time it was the lights were low oh how |
| I leaned back on my radio oh oh |
| Some cat was layin' down some rock-n-roll lotta soul, he said |
| Then the loud sound did seem to fade-a-ade |
| Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase ha hase |
| That weren't no d.j. 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'd blow our minds |
| There's a starman waiting in the sky |
| He's told 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 ho ho |
| Hey, that's far out so you heard him too! o o |
| Switch on the tv we may pick him up on channel two |
| Look out your window I can see his light a ight |
| If we can sparkle he may land tonight a ight |
| Don't tell your poppa or hell 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'd blow our minds |
| There's a starman waiting in the sky |
| He's told 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 |
|
| 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 told me: |
| Let the children lose it |

| Let all the children boogie |
