[Verse 1] (Joe Hawley)
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
(Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one)
[Verse 2] (Andrew Kurtz)
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
[Verse 3] (Joe Hawley)
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
[Chorus] (Joe Hawley)
For here am I sitting in my tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do
[Verse 4] (Joe Hawley)
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
[Verse 5] (Andrew Kurtz)
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-
[Chorus] (Joe Hawley)
-Here am I floating 'round my tin can
(Far) Far above the moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there's nothing I can do…
