He's done a lot of things ;o) Here's a ditty from '72. The year I finished high school and washed up far too young on the campus of McGill .. Starman ======= 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 D.J. that was hazy cosmic jive CHORUS) 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 his light If we can sparkle he may land tonight Don't tell your poppa or he'll get us locked up in fright CHORUS (x2) La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la (repeat) Then again there is the depressing and maudlin but nice just the same Mary Hopkins tune... I'm workin' late tonight with some waiting intervals :o) ... Lyric for those were the days by Mary Hopkins Once upon a time there was a tavern Where we used to raise a glass or two Remember how we laughed away the hours, And dreamed of all the great things we would do Chorus: Those were the days my friend We thought they'd never end We'd sing and dance forever and a day We'd live the life we chose We'd fight and never lose For we were young and sure to have our way La la la la la la La la la la la la Those were the days Oh yes those were the days Then the busy years went rushing by us We lost our starry notions on the way If by chance I'd see you in the tavern We'd smile at one another and we'd say Those were the days... Just tonight I stood before the tavern Nothing seemed the way it used to be In the glass I saw a strange reflection Was that lonely fellow really me? Those were the days... Through the door there came familiar laughter I saw your face and heard you call my name Oh my friends were older but no wiser For in our hearts the dreams are still the same Those were the days...
