Songs for Eternity - V



Do you remember a guy that's been in such an early song.
I 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 and i ain't got no hair
But i'm hoping to kick but the planet is glowing
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know major Tom's a junky. Strung out on heaven's high
Hitting an all time low

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
Want an axe to break the ice. Want to come down right now

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know major Tom's a junky
Strung out on heaven's high
Hitting an all time low

My mama said to get things done
You better not mess with major tom

Se alguém pode dizer que têm um ídolo, então este é o meu. Descoberto por acaso, num dia de Outono, sem folhas nem chuva, mas iluminado pelo brilho tímido do sol. Como todas as coisas que acabam por ter alguma importância.
