I know the reason you've been crying, oh yeah I heard she won't be needing you How does it feel being the one left behind What's a matter baby is it hurting you I know you found out she's been cheating, oh yeah And I heard she even told you she was untrue How does it feel being on the outside looking in What's a matter baby is it hurting you Remember Remember when I needed you so bad Remember Remember what you had to say You told me to find another shoulder to cry on Then you laughed You laughed and you walked away I know that you've been asking about me (ha-ha) And I'm sorry but I've got somebody new And my hurting is just about over, oh yeah But baby it's just starting for you!

(David Bowie) Didn't know what time it was, 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 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!
