Major Tom (Völlig losgelöst) Lyrics Übersetzung
Thoroughly checked, it stands there
Waiting for the start - all clear!
Experts argue about a few data points
The crew still has a few questions
But - the countdown is running
Effectiveness determines action
Everyone depends blindly on the others
Everyone knows exactly how much is dependent on him
Everyone is in stress, but Major Tom
Makes a joke
Then he lifts off and
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Completely weightless
The Earth's gravitational force is overcome
Everything has been running perfectly for hours
Scientific experiments
But what good are they in the end, thinks
Major Tom
In the control center, there is panic
The course of the capsule is not right
"Hello Major Tom, can you hear
Do you want to destroy the project like this?"
But he cannot hear
He floats on
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Completely weightless
The earth shimmers blue, his last transmission comes
"Greetings to my wife", and then silence
Below, the egoists still mourn
Major Tom thinks to himself, if they only knew
A light leads me here through the universe
A light that you don't know yet, I'm coming soon
I'm getting cold
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Floats the space ship
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Weightless
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Completely weightless
Waiting for the start - all clear!
Experts argue about a few data points
The crew still has a few questions
But - the countdown is running
Effectiveness determines action
Everyone depends blindly on the others
Everyone knows exactly how much is dependent on him
Everyone is in stress, but Major Tom
Makes a joke
Then he lifts off and
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Completely weightless
The Earth's gravitational force is overcome
Everything has been running perfectly for hours
Scientific experiments
But what good are they in the end, thinks
Major Tom
In the control center, there is panic
The course of the capsule is not right

Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Floats the space ship
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Weightless
Completely detached
From the Earth
Floats the space ship
Completely weightless
