David Bowie Needs To Die
Jul 5^th, 2009 at 11:55pm

After going out to a PUNK ROCK show last night and hearing several Michael Jackson songs in a row and getting almost violently frustrated, I came to the conclusion that David Bowie needs to die immedietly. Though not as popular as Jackson, he is almost universally loved, has the most geniunely diverse collection of songs and much crossover appeal. If he were to die right now, I would be hearing his songs when I go out for several weeks at least.

I thought at first another Mark Chapman on the loose, that brings to mind at the time Lennon got murdered, Bowie was on broadway playing Elephant Man, he was good friends with Lennon, & when he got killed he was so upset that he finished the play & disappeared for a long while, & like some other rock stars, was fearful that another person like Chapman was around.

its been five years since the last tour............

Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing
News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in
News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying
Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying
I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys electric irons and t.v.s
My brain hurt like a warehouse

it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought Id need so many people

A girl my age went off her head, hit some tiny children
If the black hadnt a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them
A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheels of a cadillac
A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a queer threw up at the sight of that

I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long
Smiling and waving and looking so fine, dont think
You knew you were in this song
And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
And I thought of ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk
I kiss you, youre beautiful, I want you to walk

Weve got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Weve got five years, what a surprise
Five years, stuck on my eyes
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Weve got five years, stuck on my eyes
Five years, what a surprise
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Weve got five years, what a surprise
Weve got five years, stuck on my eyes
Weve got five years, my brain hurts a lot
Five years, thats all weve got
Five years
Five years
Five years
Five years

you made a grown man cry

Every chance,
every chance that I take
I take it on the road
Those kilometres and the red lights
I was always looking left and right
Oh, but I'm always crashing
in the same car

Jasmine, I saw you peeping
As I pushed my foot down to the floor
I was going round and round the hotel garage
Must have been touching close to 94
Oh, but I'm always crashing
in the same car

:funny

Thanks Mojoman for the lyrics, Ziggy Stardust was a masterpiece.
