You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it And the clock waits so patiently on your song

Artist- David Bowie aka Ziggy Stardust
Song of the day- Rock n roll suicide

One of my friends was talking about another David Bowie song with me today and it got me thinking about one of my fav halloween costumes (minus the mullet and plus the face painted lightening bolt!) and how much I loved this concept album, especially this one song. I feel like this is always a good end of the night song after a long night out or a long hard week out or a short life as a martian glam rock prophet here to save the world, you know the usual. Wherever you are on the spectrum, at the end of the day it's always nice to know you're not alone. There's at least a Ziggy Stardust from Mars who's got your back...and if you don't believe me I'll break out the old costume to prove it.



Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then the
cigarette
The wall-to-wall's calling, it lingers, then you forget
oh oh oh oh
You're a rock 'n' roll suicide
You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clock waits so patiently on your song
You walk past the cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too
long
oh oh oh oh
You're a rock 'n' roll suicide
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But day breaks instead so you hurry home
Don't let the sun blast your shadow
Don't let the milk floats ride your mind
So natural-religiously unkind
Oh, no, love! you're not alone
You're watching yourself but you're too unfair
You got your head all tangled up, but if I could only make you
care
Oh, no, love! you're not alone
No matter what or who you've been
No matter where or when you've seen
All the knives seem to lacerate your brain
I've had my share, so I'll help you with the pain
You're not alone, just turn on with me
You're not alone, let's turn on and be
You're not alone, gimme your hands
You're wonderful, gimme your hands
You're wonderful, gimme your hands
