The Cygnet Committee Lyrics - Space Oddity - David Bowie

I bless you madly, 

sadly as I tie my shoes 

I love you badly, 

Just in time, at times, I guess 

Because of you I need to rest 

Because it's you 

that sets the test 

So much has gone 

and little is new 

And as the sparrow sings 

Dawn for 

Someone else to hear 

The Thinker sits alone growing older 

And so bitter

"I gave Them life 

I gave Them all 

They drained my very soul 

...dry 

I crushed my heart 

to ease Their pains 

No thought for me remains there 

Nothing can They spare 

What of me? 

Who praised Their efforts 

to be free? 

Words of strength and care 

and sympathy 

I opened doors 

that would have blocked Their way 

I braved Their cause to guide, 

for little pay 

Photos 

I ravaged at my finance just for Those 

Those whose claims were steeped in peace, tranquility 

Those who said a new world, new ways ever free 

Those whose promises stretched in hope and grace for me" 

I bless you madly, 

sadly as I tie my shoes 

I love you badly, just in time, 

at times, I guess 

Because of you I need to rest, oh yes 

Because it's you 

that sets the test 

So much has gone 

and little is new 

And as the sunrise stream 

Flickers on me, 

My friends talk 

Of glory, untold dream, where all is God and God is just a word 

"We had a friend, a talking man 

Who spoke of many powers that he had 

Not of the best of men, but Ours 

We used him 

We let him use his powers 

We let him fill Our needs 

Now We are strong 

And the road is coming to its end 

Now the damned have no time to make amends 

No purse of token fortune stands in Our way 

The silent guns of love 

will blast the sky 

We broke the ruptured structure built of age 

Our weapons were the tongues of crying rage 

Where money stood 

We planted seeds of rebirth 

And stabbed the backs of fathers 

Sons of dirt 

Infiltrated business cesspools 

Hating through Our sleeves 

Yea, and We slit the Catholic throat 

Stoned the poor 

on slogans such as 

'Wish You Could Hear' 

'Love Is All We Need' 

'Kick Out The Jams' 

'Kick Out Your Mother' 

'Cut Up Your Friend' 

'Screw Up Your Brother or He'll Get You In the End' 

And We Know the Flag of Love is from Above 

And We Can Force You to Be Free 

And We Can Force You to Believe" 

And I close my eyes and tighten up my brain 

For I once read a book in which the lovers were slain 

For they knew not the words of the Free States' refrain 

It said: 

"I believe in the Power of Good 

I Believe in the State of Love 

I Will Fight For the Right to be Right 

I Will Kill for the Good of the Fight for the Right to be Right" 

And I open my eyes to look around 

And I see a child laid slain 

on the ground 

As a love machine lumbers through desolation rows 

Ploughing down man, woman, listening to its command 

But not hearing anymore 

Not hearing anymore 

Just the shrieks from the old rich 

And I Want to Believe 

In the madness that calls 'Now' 

And I want to Believe 

That a light's shining through 

Somehow 

And I Want to Believe 

And You Want to Believe 

And We Want to Believe 

And We Want to Live 

Oh, We Want to Live 

We Want to Live 

I want to live
