Major Tom To Ground Control

Hello fellow passengers, visionaries, messengers
Those who refuse to bend
The temperature is moderate, the landscape is desolate
And soon we'll be cruising in

Place your heads between your knees
Hold your breath try not to breathe
Soon you'll be washed ashore

Gather up your relatives, your positives, your negatives
And prepare to disembark

Martyrs please form on the right
For nihilists its black and white
A bit of order if you please

Heads of state people not yet dead
Grab a chair and be discreet
Lets not wake up the deceased

First lets all get one thing clear
I'm wondering why I brought you here
I can't recall your names

But if you'll calmly wait your turn
I'll get to you all in due time
We'll end this grand charade

Are you on drugs?
Are you on dope?
Cause I just can't get enough of you
And I don't know which way to go

Are you in love?
Are you on your own?
Cause I couldn't bear the thought of leaving you
Out here all alone

Major Tom to Ground Control
I've seen the light, I'm coming home
And what a tale I can tell

Patterns woven in the stars
Chaos with an access chart
Man I've been through hell

Men from space form on the left
Lets analyze your bated breath
And make sure you have no scars

Big Brother doesn't welcome men
Who stir up the establishment
Please fill out this chart

Are you on drugs?
Are you on dope?
Cause I just can't get enough of you
And I don't know which way to go

Are you in love?
Are you on your own?
Cause I couldn't bear the thought of leaving you
Out here all alone

And here I am sliding down the ladder of life
And I'm wandering and constantly wondering
For all it's worth I just sit back
And try to see everything
And be nothing

I'll see you on the other side

Buried under all that sand
The Sahara Desert holds the hands of a million tonnes of gold
Enough to feed the world ten times if men only knew where to find
The secret remains untold

Like answers to the universe, none are better than the first
And most are best left unsaid
But someone has to crave it all and cause the rest to stand or fall
Us we break or we bend

Are you on drugs?
Are you on dope?
Cause I just can't get enough of you
And I don't know which way to go

Are you in love?
Are you on your own?
Cause I couldn't bear the thought of leaving you
Out here all alone
