Grade 2 and 3 have been singing, listening and dancing to music related to space travel and robots!

The Robots Kraftwerk

Major Tom Peter Schilling (make sure to find the English version; the original is in German)

Neonlicht Kraftwerk

Here are the words for Calling Home (Major Tom) by Peter Schilling

Standing there alone, the ship is waiting
All systems are go, are you sure?
Control is not convinced
But the computer has the evidence
No need to abort

The countdown starts

Watching in a trance, the crew is certain
Nothing left to chance, all is working
Trying to relax, up in the capsule
“Send me up a drink”, jokes Major Tom
The count goes on

4, 3, 2, 1
Earth below us, drifting falling
Floating weightless, calling home
