Ashes to Ashes
Naçăo Zumbi Lyrics


Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 to love
Sordid details following"
The shrieking of nothing is killing
Just pictures of Jap girls In sin city and
I ain't got no money and ain't got no hair
But I'm hoping to kick but
The planet it's 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 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

Ashes to ashes, fun to funky
We know Major Tom's a junkie
Strung out in heaven's high
Hitting an all-time low

My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom





My mother said to get things done
You'd better not mess with Major Tom

Do you remember a guy that's been
Do you recall a man who has existed


In such an early song
Within a song from the past


I've heard a rumour from Ground Control
I have received information from the central command


Oh no, don't say it's true
Oh no, please don't confirm its authenticity


They got a message from the Action Man
They received a communication from the heroic figure


"I'm happy, hope you're happy too
"I am content, I hope you are as well


I've loved all I've needed to love
I have loved everything that was necessary to love


Sordid details following"
Dirty secrets to be revealed later


The shrieking of nothing is killing
The sound of emptiness is destroying


Just pictures of Jap girls In sin city and
Only images of Japanese women in a sinful city and


I ain't got no money and ain't got no hair
I have no money and no hair


But I'm hoping to kick but
However, I am hoping to succeed


The planet it's glowing
The world is shining


Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
From dust to dust, in a cool and stylish way


We know Major Tom's a junkie
We are aware that Major Tom is addicted


Strung out in heaven's high
In a state of drug-induced euphoria


Hitting an all-time low
Reaching the lowest point


Time and again I tell myself
Repeatedly, I remind myself


I'll stay clean tonight
I will avoid drug use tonight


But the little green wheels are following me
However, the small green wheels are tracking me


Oh no, not again
Oh no, it's happening once more


I'm stuck with a valuable friend
I am accompanied by a precious companion


"I'm happy, hope you're happy too"
"I am content, I hope you are as well"


One flash of light, but no smoking pistol
A sudden burst of light, but no clear evidence


I never done good things
I have never done good deeds


I never done bad things
I have never done bad deeds


I never did anything out of the blue
I have never acted unexpectedly


Want an axe to break the ice
Desire a tool to break the tension


Wanna come down right now
Yearn to descend immediately


My mother said to get things done
My mother advised me to complete tasks


You'd better not mess with Major Tom
It is advisable not to interfere with Major Tom


My mother said to get things done
My mother advised me to complete tasks


You'd better not mess with Major Tom
It is advisable not to interfere with Major Tom


My mother said to get things done
My mother advised me to complete tasks


You'd better not mess with Major Tom
It is advisable not to interfere with Major Tom


My mother said to get things done
My mother advised me to complete tasks


You'd better not mess with Major Tom
It is advisable not to interfere with Major Tom

Grande clássico do Camaleão David Bowie. Impressionante como Bowie está presente no trabalho de artistas das mais variadas vertentes musicais seja em covers ou em influências de suas composições.
