Do you remember a guy that's been,
In such an early song,
I've heard a rumor 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-
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,
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've done good things,
I've never done bad things,
I never did anything out of the blue,
Want an axe to break the ice
Wanna come down right now
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low
My mama said, "To get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom."
