Grant Lee Phillips - Ashes To Ashes Lyrics

Do you remember a guy who's been
In such an early song oh oh
I've got a rumor from Ground Control
Oh no don't say it's true
I 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 streaking of nothing is killing me
Just the Jap girls in synthesis and I
I ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick off this planet
It's glowing glowing glowing glowing glowing

Ashes to ashes funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in 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
Well just one flash of light
But no smoking pistol
I never done good things
I never done bad things
I never did anything out of the blue woh-o-oh
Want an axe to break the ice
Well I 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

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
