Mmmusic
I tried to break away from you
from the spics and blacks and the gum you chew
where the posters are torn by the mugging gangs
by the faggy parks and the burnt-out vans
I've got ninety-nine years of laying in the dark
and I'm far too young to lie
I've got ninety-nine ways to play my guitar
it's going to pay me before I die

so bob your sweet head
brother Ziggy gonna play
I'm just about the best you can hear
gonna rock it in your head
shazam! and come ball
with my guitar and my soprano
we can give you sweet head

I'm tough as glass and clean as night
well, if looks can love we can love all right
I'm your rubber peacock angelic whore
I'm a wrought iron face upon the wall
I had ninety-nine years of murder called life
and I'm running away from it all
I got a bedroom, every mirror in town
they're going to claim me if I fall

so bob your sweet head
brother Ziggy gonna play
I'm just about the best you can hear
gonna rock it in your head
shazam! and come ball
with my guitar and my soprano
we can give you sweet head

(while you're down there...)

see my eyes of blocked emotion
see my tremble, see my fall
traumatics thick and fast
your faith in me can last
besides, I'm known to lay you, one and all

look south the way your mother dwells
if she knew what's going down, she'd give you hell
I'm the kind of man she warned me of
'til there was rock, you only had God

you and I have a mutual vow
we both like young, and we both like loud
I got pretty shoes, and I'm kid and proud
I'm street side out with my ear to the crowd

so bob your sweet head
brother Ziggy gonna play
I'm just about the best you can hear
gonna rock it in your head
shazam! and come ball
with my guitar and my soprano
we can give you sweet head

I'm falling down
and fifteen thousand people scream
they were all begging for your dream
I'm falling down
five thousand houses burning down
no one is gonna save this town

too late -
I already found what I was looking for
you know it wasn't here
no, it wasn't here

I was calling your name
but you would never hear me sing
you wouldn't let me begin
so I'm crawling away
'cause you broke my heart in two
no, I will not forget you

too late -
I already found what I was looking for
you know it wasn't you
no, it wasn't you

falling away
you would never see me through
no, I could not forget you
falling down
five thousand houses burning down
no one is gonna save this town

too late -
I already found what I was looking for
you know it wasn't you
no, it wasn't you

falling down
now the world is upside down
I'm heading straight for the clouds

***

I forgot what my father said
I forgot what he said
I forgot what my mother said
as we lay upon your bed

a city full of flowers
a city full of rain
I got seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die

I forgot what my brother said
I forgot what he said
I don't regret anything at all
I remember how we wept

on a bridge of violent people
I was small enough to cry
I got seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die

hold my face before you
still my trembling heart
seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die

the gods forgot they made me
so I forget them too
I listen to the shadows
I play among their graves

my heart was never broken
my patience never tried
I got seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die

seven days to live my life
or seven ways to die

***

this means nothing to me
'cause you are nothing to me
and it means nothing to me
that you blew this away

'cause you could have been number one
if you only found the time
and you could have ruled the whole world
if you had the chance

you could have been number one
and you could have ruled the whole world
and we could have had so much fun
but you blew it away

you're still nothing to me
and this is nothing to me
and you don't know what you've done
but I'll give you a clue:

you could have been number one
if you only had the chance
and you could have ruled the whole world
if you had the time

you could have been number one
and you could have ruled the whole world
and we could have had so much fun
but you blew it away

people stared at the makeup on his face
laughed at his long black hair
his animal grace
the boy in the bright blue jeans
jumped up on the stage
and Lady Stardust sang his songs
of darkness and disgrace

and he was all right
the band was all together
yes, he was all right
the song went on forever
and he was awful nice
really quite out of sight
and he sang all night long

femmes fatales emerged from shadows
to watch this creature fair
boys stood upon their chairs
to make their point of view
I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey
Lady Stardust sang his songs
of darkness and dismay

and he was all right
the band was all together
yes, he was all right
the song went on forever
and he was awful nice
really quite paradise
and he sang all night long

oh, how I sighed
when they asked if I knew his name

and he was all right
the band was all together
yes, he was all right
the song went on forever
and he was awful nice
really quite paradise
and he sang all night long

change everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called
fights, battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahead

best, you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

don't let yourself down
don't let yourself go
Your last chance has arrived

best, you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and you use this chance to be heard
your time is now

***

you promised me the ending would be clear
you'd let me know when the time was now
don't let me know when you're opening the door
stab me in the dark, let me disappear

memories that flutter like bats out of hell
stab you from the city spires
life wasn't worth the balance
or the crumpled paper it was written on

don't let me know we're invisible
don't let me know we're invisible

hot cash days that you trailed around
cold cold nights under chrome and glass
led me down river of perfumed limbs
sent me to the streets with the good time girls

don't let me know we're invisible
don't let me know we're invisible
we could dance, dance, dance through the fire
dance, dance, dance through the fire

feed me no lies
I don't know about you, I don't know about you
breathe through the years
I don't know about you, I don't know about you
bring me the disco king
I don't know about you, I don't know about you
dead or alive, bring me the disco king

spin-offs with those who slept like corpses
damp morning rays in the stiff bad clubs
killing time in the '70s
smelling of love through the moist winds
don't let me know when you're opening the door
close me in the dark, let me disappear
soon there'll be nothing left of me
nothing left to release

dance, dance, dance through the fire
dance, dance, dance through the fire
feed me no lies
I don't know about you, I don't know about you
breathe through the years
I don't know about you, I don't know about you
bring me the disco king
I don't know about you, I don't know about you
dead or alive, bring me the disco king

***

I think I'm drowning, asphyxiated
I wanna break this spell that you've created
you're something beautiful, a contradiction
I wanna play the game, I want the friction

you will be the death of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out

I wanted freedom, bound and restricted
I tried to give you up but I'm addicted
now that you know I'm trapped since ovulation
you'd never dream of breaking this fixation

you will squeeze the life out of me

bury it
I won't let you bury it
I won't let you smother it
I won't let you murder it

our time is running out
you can't push it underground
you can't stop it screaming out
how did it come to this?

you will suck the life out of me
