Space oddity

Ground control to major Tom
Ground control to major Tom
Lock your Soyuz hatch and put your helmet on

Ground control to major Tom

Commencing countdown, engines on

Detach from station, and may god's love be with you
(2, 1, Liftoff)

This is ground control to major Tom
You've really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it's time to guide the capsule if you dare

This is major Tom to ground control
I'm left forever more
And I'm floating in the most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today

For here am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet earth is blue, and there's nothing left to do

Though I've flown 100,000 miles
I'm feeling very still
And before to long I know it's time to go
Our commander comes down back to earth, at most

Ground control to major Tom
The time is near, there's not too long
Can you hear me major tom?
Can you hear me major tom?
Can you hear me major tom?
Can you

Here am I floating in my tin can
Last glimpse of the world
Planet earth is blue, and there's nothing left to do
