DAVID BOWIE - Ziggy Stardust (2012 Remastered Version) Lyrics

Oh
Oh, yeah
Ziggy played guitar.

Jamming good with Weird and Gilly,
And the Spiders from Mars.
He played it left hand,
But made it too far.

Became the special man,
Then we were Ziggy's band.
Ziggy really sang,
Screwed-up eyes, and screwed-down hairdo,

Like some cat from Japan.
He could lick 'em by smiling,
He could leave 'em to hang.

They came on so loaded, man.
Well-hung and snow-white tan.
So where were the spiders?
While the fly tried to break our bones?

With just the beer light to guide us.
So we bitched about his fans.
And should we crush his sweet hands?

Oh
Mm-hmm
Ziggy played for time.
Jiving us that we were voodoo.
The kids were just crass.
He was the nazz,
With God-given ass.
He took it all too far,
But, boy, could he play guitar.
Making love with his ego.
Ziggy sucked up into his mind, ah.
Like a leper messiah.
When the kids had killed the man,
I had to break up the band.
Oh, yeah.
Ooh.
Ziggy played guitar.
