Space Oddity Songtext
von Brandi Carlile

Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground Control to Major Tom

Commencing countdown, engines on
Check ignition and may God′s 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
Don′t the stars look very different today?

For here am I (here am I), sitting in a tin can (sitting in a 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 (here am I), floating in a tin can (floating in a tin can)
Far above the moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do

There′s nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There's nothing I can do
There′s nothing I can do

Nothing I can, nothing I can do
There′s nothing I can do
Nothing I can do
