mr. spaceman

byrds, the

woke up this morning with light in my eyes

and then realized it was still dark outside

it was a light comin'down from the sky

i don't know who or why

must be those strangers that come every night

whose saucers shaped light put people up tight

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 mornin'

i was feeling quite weird

had flies in my beer

my tooth paste was smeared

i opened my window

they'd written my name

said: so long
