Ziggy Stardust - Sounds of the 70s - John Peel, Recorded 16.5.72, 2000 Remaster

Ziggy played guitar, jamming good with Weird and Gilly,
 And the spiders from Mars. He played it left hand
 But made it too far
 Became the special man, then we were Ziggy's band
 Now Ziggy really sang, screwed up eyes and screwed down hairdo
 Like some cat from Japan, he could lick 'em by smiling
 He could leave 'em to hang
 'Came on so loaded man, well hung and snow white tan.
 So where were the spiders, while the fly tried to break our balls
 With just the beer light to guide us,
 So we bitched about his fans and should we crush his sweet hands?
 Ziggy played for time, jiving us that we were voodoo
 The kid was just crass, he was the nazz
 With God given ass
 He took it all too far but boy could he play guitar
 Making love with his ego Ziggy sucked up into his mind
 Like a leper messiah
 When the kids had killed the man I had to break up the band.
