ziggy stardust

The thin white duke
David bowie
from Brixton london
1947/2016 r.i.p.

standing by the thin wall
kiss and tell we all fall
suffragette city such a pity
your face is a bloody mess
lets all go and play chess
for the life of the human race
fall down to earth for pity sake
don’t blow your tiny little mind
save some ziggy for all mankind
 
running in the mad cold windy rain
had to find time to get on the train
i was so sad with thy bloody pain
i wish i could swim just for one day
falling down stars look up to mars
rock and roll new York full of cars
 
 
sad as i am old as a boxing bore
sixties times gone by sad tis no more
American queen bitch in the street
beating up to find the wrong guy
ziggy stardust playing his guitar
crush with thy string sweet hands
waiting to go up to the sky all worthwhile
 
the shape of the wide world to come
golden years full of gears with tears
take your protein and happy pills
and put your old crash helmet on
ground control space to major tom
just like my little china geisha girl
dressing up with her honky gory stare
 
look up here Lazarus i made the grade
i was the song hero just for one day
i have got the scars with all my diamond dogs
fame was with Jane all a cancer for me to say goodday
farewell my bluebird jay heaven you will stay
step aside to my spirit arose to where i thee go

dedicated to the memory of David bowie
his art of rock and soul inspired so many
as he said it wont be boring where he is going
after all he will be with a few mates john lennon
marc bolan George Harrison r.i.p to all great artist's
