do you remember a guy that's been
in such an early song
i heard [bad word] from ground control
oh no, don't say it's [bad word] 
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
just pictures of [bad word] girls in synthesis
and i ain't got no money and and i ain't got no hair
but i'm hoping to kick but the planet is glowing aglow aglow
ashes to ashes funk to funky
we know major tom's a junky
 [bad word] out on 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've never done good things
i've never done bad things
i never did anything out of the blue
want an axe to break the ice
want [bad word] down right now

ashes to ashes funk to funky
we know major tom's a junky
 [bad word] out on heaven's high
hitting an all time low

my mama said to get things done
you better not mess with major tom
