A/N: This song refers to the Doctor as Doctor Who. While I know that the Doctor's name is simply "The Doctor," this fit the meter of the song better and it fits the song's double-meaning, which hearkens back to the gap between Classic and New Who. I don't own "Space Oddity" (or "Doctor Who," for that matter).
"Space-Time Oddity"
BBC to Doctor Who
BBC to Doctor Who
Change polarity
Reverse the neutron flow
BBC to Doctor Who
Commencing countdown,
Set to go
We're in safe hands
And it's you who made it so
[spoken]
Eleven, Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six, Five, Four, Three, Two, One, Geronimo
This is BBC
to Doctor Who
You're travelling through time
Though it's dangerous you're brave enough to try
To go forth and fight some monsters
for mankind
This is Doctor Who to BBC
The stellar battle waits
And I know that
In the end I will come home
As I stare into the skies I call my own
For here am I
Piloting the TARDIS
Past each glowing moon
Planet Earth is round
And it's safe while I'm around
Though I've now
Lived past a thousand years,
I'll make the trip from hell
And I took some jelly babies for the road
Promise everyone that I'll be back
They know
BBC to Doctor Who
Your circuit's dead,
What can we do?
Can you hear us, Doctor Who?
Can you hear us, Doctor Who?
Can you hear us, Doctor Who?
Can you...
Here am I
Safe inside my TARDIS
Bourne across the stars
Planet Earth is round
And it's safe while I'm around
