Starman
Embrace the Cosmic Message: Starman's Revelation
Lyrics
Didn't know what time it was the lights were low
Uncertainty about the time in a dimly lit setting.
I leaned back on my radio
Relaxing against a radio.
Some cat was layin' down some rock 'n' roll
Someone playing rock 'n' roll on the radio.
Then the loud sound did seem to fade
Loud sound fading away.
Came back like a slow voice on a wave of phase
Return of sound like a distant voice.
That weren't no DJ that was hazy cosmic jive
The sound is not a DJ but a hazy cosmic jive.
There's a starman waiting in the sky
A celestial being, the "starman," waiting in the sky.
He'd like to come and meet us
The starman wants to meet humans.
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
Fears that meeting the starman might be overwhelming.
There's a starman waiting in the sky
Reiteration of the starman waiting in the sky.
He's told us not to blow it
Advises not to squander the opportunity.
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
Believes the encounter with the starman is meaningful.
And he told me:
Direct communication from the starman.
Let the children lose it
Encourages letting go and being free.
Let the children use it
Advocates using creativity and expression.
Let all the children boogie
Encourages all children to dance and enjoy life.
I had to phone someone so I picked on you
Reaching out to someone to share the experience.
Hey, that's far out so you heard him too
Expressing amazement and confirming shared experience.
Switch on the TV we may pick him up on channel two
Suggesting using the TV to find the starman.
Look out your window I can see his light
Asking to look outside to witness the starman's light.
If we can sparkle he may land tonight
Hopeful that if humans shine, the starman might visit.
Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright
Cautioning against revealing the experience to avoid negative consequences.
There's a starman waiting in the sky
Reiteration of the starman in the sky.
He'd like to come and meet us
The starman desires to meet humans.
But he thinks he'd blow our minds
Concern about the potential overwhelming impact of the encounter.
There's a starman waiting in the sky
Reiteration of the starman waiting in the sky.
He's told us not to blow it
Advises not to waste the meaningful opportunity.
'Cause he knows it's all worthwhile
Belief in the significance of the encounter with the starman.
And he told me:
Direct communication from the starman.
Let the children lose it
Encouragement to let go and be free, especially for children.
Let the children use it
Advocacy for creative expression and enjoyment for children.
Let all the children boogie
Final call for all children to dance and enjoy life.
