Culture Club - Starman lyrics



Didn't know what time it was and the lights were low
I leaned back on my radio
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll 'lotta soul, he said
Then the loud sound did seem to fade
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
That weren't no DJ, that was hazy cosmic jive

There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile

He told me -
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

I had to phone someone so I picked on you
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too!
Switch on the TV we may pick him up on Channel Two
Look out your window I can see the light
If we can sparkle he may land tonight
Don't tell your papa or he'll get us locked up in fright

There's a starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile

He told me -
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

Starman waiting in the sky
He'd like to come and meet us
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
There's a starman waiting in the sky
He's told us not to blow it
Cause he knows it's all worthwhile

He told me -
Let the children lose it
Let the children use it
Let all the children boogie

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la-la (repeat until end)

Culture Club faithfully covered this David Bowie hit (it reached No.10 in the UK and No.65 in the US in July 1972) on their '98 Re-wind Tour so well that it has become a fixture at Culture Club concerts, got a joint A-Side single with Cold Shoulder and also features on the new album, Don't Mind If I Do.
