Major Tom

Standing there alone, the ship is waiting
Our systems are go, are you sure?
Control is not convinced
But that computer has the evidence
No need to abort, the countdown starts

Watching in the threads, the crew is certain
Nothing but the jets, all is working
Trying to relax, up in the capsule
Send me up a drink, jokes Major Tom
The count goes on

Four, three, two, one
Earth below us, creating, falling
For the wait list
Calling, calling home

Seconds, they just cut, we're now in orbits
Stabilizer's on, running perfect
Starting to collect, requested data
What will it affect, when all is done?
Fix Major Tom

Light and grid control, there is a problem
Oh, the rocket's full, not responding
Hello Major Tom, are you receiving?
Turn the dresses up, we're standing by
There's no reply

Four, three, two, one
Earth below us, creating, falling
For the wait list
Calling, calling home

Calling home, calling home, calling home
Calling home
