Below, you will find the lyrics for Ashes To Ashes by David Bowie.
Verse 1
Do you remember a guy that's been
In such an early song?
I've heard a rumour from ground control
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
Chorus 1
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, glowing, glowing
Ashes to ash and funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low
Verse 2
Time and again, I tell myself
I'll stay clean tonight
But the little green wheels are following me
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
Chorus 2
I've never done good things
I've never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now
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 mother said: 'to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom'
My mother said: 'to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom'
My mother said: 'to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom'
My mother said: 'to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom'
