"Ashes To Ashes"

 Do you remember a guy that's been
 In such an early song
 I've 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 me
 Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis
 And I ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair
 But I'm hoping to kick but the planet is glowing

[Chorus:]
 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."
 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,
 Want an axe to break the ice
 Wanna come down right now

[Chorus]

[4x]
 My mama said, "To get things done
 You'd better not mess with Major Tom."
