Ziggy Stardust (Live 1973)

[Intro]

Oh yeah

Ah

[Verse 1]

Now Ziggy played guitar

Jamming good with Weird and Gilly

And The Spiders from Mars

Well he played it left hand

But made it too far

Became the special man

Then we were Ziggy's Band

[Verse 2]

Ziggy really sang

Screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo

Like some cat from Japan

Oh he could lick 'em by smiling

He could leave 'em to hang

Well he came on so loaded man

Well hung, snow white tan

[Chorus 1]

So where were the spiders

While the fly tried to break our balls?

Just the beer light to guide us

So we bitched about his fans

And should we crush his sweet hands?

Oh yeah!

[Verse 3]

Ziggy played for time

Jiving us that we were Voodoo

The kids was just crass

He was the nazz

With God-given ass

But he took it all too far

But boy could he play guitar

[Chorus 2]

Making love with his ego (Oh, yeah)

Ziggy sucked up into his mind (Ah)

Like a leper messiah

When the kids had killed a man

I had to break up the band

Oh yeah

Oooh

Ohh-hoo-hoo

[Outro]

Now Ziggy played guitar

[Audience Applause]
