Lyrics David Bowie

David Bowie

Lady Stardust

1. 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

R: And he was alright, the band was altogether

Yes he was alright, the songs went on forever

Emi Emi(#7)

And he was awful nice

Emi7 Emi6

Really quite out of sight

And he sang all night long

2. The femme fatales emerged from shadows

To watch this creature fair

Boys stood upon their chairs to make thier point of view

I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey

And Lady Stardust sang his songs

Of darkness and dismay

R: And he was alright...

Ooh, how I sighed when they asked if I knew his name

3. Oh they were alright, the band was altogether

Yes he was alright, and the song went on forever

He was up all night

Really quite out of sight

He sang all night long
