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.\".
