"Mr Spaceman"

by The Byrds

​

Woke up this morning

With light in my eyes

And then realised

It was still dark outside

It was a light

Coming down from the sky

I don't know

Who or why

​

Must be those strangers

That come every night

Those saucer shaped lights

Put people uptight

Leave blue-green footprints

That glow in the dark

I hope they

Get home all right

 

Hey, Mr. Spaceman

Won't you please

Take me along?

I won't do anything wrong!

Hey, Mr. Spaceman

Won't you please

Take me along

For a ride?

 

Woke up this morning,

I was feeling quite weird

Had flies in my beard

My toothpaste was smeared

Over my window

They'd written my name

Said, so long,

We'll see you again

​

Hey, Mr. Spaceman

Won't you please

Take me along?

I won't do anything wrong!

Hey, Mr. Spaceman

Won't you please

Take me along

For a ride?

 

Hey, Mr. Spaceman

Won't you please

Take me along?

I won't do anything wrong!

Hey, Mr. Spaceman

Won't you please

Take me along

For a ride?
