Ground control to major Tom 
 Ground control to major Tom 
 Take your protein pills and put your helmet on 
 (Ten) Ground control (Nine) to major Tom (Eight) 
 (Seven, [bad word] countdown (Five), engines on (Four) 
 (Three, two) Check ignition (One) and may gods (Blastoff) love be with you 
 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 leave the capsule if you dare 

This is major Tom to ground control, I'm stepping through the door 
 And I'm floating in a most peculiar way 
 And the stars look very different today 
 Here am I floatin' 'round my tin can far above the world 
 Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do 

Though I'm past one hundred thousand miles, I'm feeling very still 
 And I think my spaceship knows which way to go 
 Tell my wife I love her very much, she knows 
 Ground control to major Tom, 
Your circuit's dead, there's something wrong 
 Can you hear me, major Tom? 
 Can you hear me, major Tom? 
 Can you hear me, major Tom? 
 Can you... 
 Here am I sitting in my tin can far above the Moon 
 Planet Earth is blue and there's nothing I can do
