Major Tom Lyrics - Embrace The Curse - 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 

Four, three, two, one 

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 

Four, three, two, one 

Earth below us, drifting, falling 

Floating weightless 

Calling, calling home 

Four, three, two, one 

Earth below us, drifting, falling 

Floating weightless 

Coming home 

Earth below us, drifting, falling 

Floating weightless 

Coming, coming home 

Home, home, home
