TESTO "STARMAN" - DAVID BOWIE
Hey la-la Oh, oh, oh
Didn't know what time it was
The lights were low, oh, oh
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
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
That weren't no DJ
That was hazy cosmic trace
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
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'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'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
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la La,
la, la, la, la, la, la, la La, la,
la, la, la, la, la, la La, la, la,
la, la, la, la, la La, la, la, la,
la, la, la, la...
