Ashes To Ashes

Do you remember a guy thats been
In such an early song
Ive heard a rumour from ground control
Oh no, dont say its true

They got a message from the action man
Im happy, hope youre happy too
Ive loved all Ive needed love
Sordid details following

The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of jap girls in synthesis and i
Aint got no money and I aint got no hair
But Im hoping to kick but the planet its glowing

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know major toms a junkie
Strung out in heavens high
Hitting an all-time low

Time and again I tell myself
Ill stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
Im stuck with a valuable friend
Im happy, hope youre happy too
One flash of light but no smoking pistol

I never done good things
I never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know major toms a junkie
Strung out in heavens high
Hitting an all-time low

My mother said to get things done
Youd better not mess with major tom

Keep the hight

Ladies ’n gentlemen, allow me to introduce you to
This ordinary kid on an ordinary night
Long story short – he was quite ordinary, right
With his ordinary sneakers and his ordinary jeans
From an ordinary town and it’s ordinary streets

OK, OK – I won’t be bothering you with this ordinary shit for long
But if I may continue I’ll try to get to the point
See, life ain’t easy, please correct me if I’m wrong
And he was no exception, in fact he was born underdog
Mommy’s working shifts and her income’s way too low
It don’t sound so pretty I know but it’s not nearly all
So hold on and sit tight coz this ain’t even half of it
Daddy came home one night drunk as hell – Oh shit
Hit ‘em high, hit ‘em low, hit’em brake their fuckin’ jaw
And that motherfucker said: “Now who’s in control?”

He’s been locked up all fucked up
His girl got knocked up
You’ll find him at the bus stop, non-stop
Waitin’ for that bus that never comes
He’s been waitin’ all night long
With one-way ticket to nowhere, ‘coz that’s where he belongs

Keep the hight now
Keep the hight now
You’re not alone, You’re gonna be alright now
This ain’t a good time to give in
‘Coz it’s a beautiful world we live in
