The Man Who Rocked The World (David Bowie tribute)
Little Sophia Strange in ‘73 Her daddy’s yelling tirades at the TV Hey man be cool!! Sweeping the screen - rebel freak with a twist A skinny genie come to grant her a wish Changes the rules He’s a real pretty thing!
But now she looks to the stars Oh with an ache in her heart For now the man who rocked the world Is going home She’s reaching up for a song Oh but the music is gone For the man who rocked the world Is going home
Big Johnny Butterfingers in ‘81 Searchin the discos for that special someone It gets so tough Feelin the pressure under laser lights But his feet go magic dancin’ when the song is just right Yeah that’s the stuff Let’s dance, Johnny
But now he looks to the stars Oh with an ache in his heart For now the man who rocked the world Is going home He’s reaching up for a song Oh but the music is gone Because the man who rocked the world Is going home
Spaceman blasting away into the big black sky tonight Smiling, riding a trail of stardust home
Little Gangly Geeky strainin’ through ‘95 Left on the outside flyin far from the hive He don’t fit in Heart got a lesson from a stranger deranged Said it’s ok man, it’s cool to be strange Make a new spin Seems so far away
And now I look to the stars Oh with an ache in my heart For now the man who rocked the world Is going home I wanna hear one more song Oh let the music live on For the man who rocked the world Is going home
