[Intro: David Bowie]
If I fall, moondust will cover me, moondust will cover me...
If I fall, moondust will cover me
If I fall, moondust will cover me
[Verse 1: David Bowie]
Spaceboy, you're sleepy now
Your silhouette is so stationary
You're released, but your custody calls
And I wanna be free
Don't you wanna be free?
Do you like girls or boys?
It's confusing these days
But moondust will cover you
Cover you
[Chorus: David Bowie & Neil Tennant]
So bye-bye love
Yeah, bye-bye love
Hallo spaceboy
This chaos is killing me
Hallo spaceboy
Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo
Moondust will cover me
[Verse 2: Neil Tennant with David Bowie]
Ground to Major, bye bye Tom
This chaos is killing me
Dead the circuit, countdown's wrong
This chaos is killing me
Planet Earth, is control on?
So sleepy now
Do you wanna be free?
Don't you wanna be free?
Do you like girls or boys?
It's confusing these days
But moondust will cover you
Cover you
[Chorus: David Bowie & Neil Tennant]
So bye-bye love
Yeah, bye-bye love
Hallo spaceboy
Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo
Hallo spaceboy
You're sleepy now
This chaos is killing me
This chaos is killing me
So bye-bye love
Yeah, bye-bye love
[Verse 3: David Bowie & Neil Tennant]
Do you wanna be free?
Yes, I wanna be free
Hallo spaceboy
You're sleepy now
Do you like girls or boys?
It's confusing these days
But moondust will cover you
Cover you
[Chorus: David Bowie & Neil Tennant]
So bye-bye love
Yeah, bye-bye love
Hallo spaceboy
Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo
Hallo spaceboy
You're sleepy now
Hallo spaceboy
Spaceboy, spaceboy, spaceboy, hallo
Hallo, hallo
If I fall, moondust will cover me
