Major Tom (Coming Home) - I Hate Kate

Standing there alone

The ship is waiting

All systems are go

«Are you sure?»

Control is not convinced

But the computer

Has the evidence

No need to abort

The countdown starts

Watching in a trance

The crew is certain

Nothing left to chance

All is working

Trying to relax

Up in the capsule

«Send me up a drink»

Jokes Major Tom

The count goes on

Earth below us

Drifting, falling

Floating weightless

Calling, calling home

Second stage is cut

We’re now in orbit

Stabilizers up

Running perfect

Starting to collect

Requested data

«What will it affect

When all is done?"

Thinks Major Tom

Back at ground control

There is a problem

«Go to rockets full»

Not responding

«Hello Major Tom

Are you receiving?

Turn the thrusters on

We’re standing by»

There’s no reply

Earth below us

Drifting, falling

Floating weightless

Calling, calling home

Earth below us

Drifting, falling

Floating weightless

Coming home

Earth below us

Drifting, falling

Floating weightless

Coming, coming home

Home
