Testo di Ashes To Ashes di David Bowie

verse

Do you remember a guy that′s been
In such an early song?
I've heard a rumour from Ground Control
Oh no, don′t say it's true!
They got a message from the Action Man
"I'm happy, hope you′re happy too
I′ve loved all I've needed, love
Sordid details following"
The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis
And I ain′t got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I′m hoping to kick but this planet is glowing

chorus

Ashes to ashes and funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven′s high
Hitting an all-time low

verse

Time and again I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
Oh no, not again
I'm stuck with a valuable friend
"I′m happy, hope you′re happy too"
One flash of light
But no smoking pistol
I've never done good things
I′ve never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue, woh-oh-oh
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now

chorus

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven′s high
Hitting an all-time low

outro

My mama said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom
My mama said to get things done
You′d better not mess with Major Tom
My mama said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom
My mama said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom
Writer(s): David Bowie
