People stared at the makeup on his face
 Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace

 The boy in the bright blue jeans
 Jumped up on the stage
 And lady stardust sang his songs
 Of darkness and disgrace

 [bad word] 
 And he was alright, the band was altogether
 Yes he was alright, the song went on forever
 And he was awful nice
 Really quite out of sight 
 ([second time:] really quite paradise)
 And he sang all night long

 Femme fatales emerged from shadows
 To watch this creature fair
 Boys stood upon their chairs
 To make their point of view
 I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey

 Lady Stardust sang his songs
 Of darkness and dismay

 [bad word] 

 Oh how I sighed 
 When they asked if I knew his name

 [bad word] 

 Get some [bad word] now!
