The Day that Bowie Died

The day that Bowie died Woke crying at your side There was no call from the action man though he had a plan Took strangeness in his stride The day the Wall came down We were dying in our room There was no call from a higher ground, just a changing sound That echoed with the bloom All the roads are clear now... No message came in from Major Tom But a black star on the horizon taught us everything we needed to know Told us everything we needed to know Everything. We needed to grow Needed to know Oh, we needed to know The day that Bowie died Woke crying at your side If dust is all we'll ever be, Then let that be, an end to it You've torn it and your pride Was there ever really a Major Tom? A black star, with the pressure on Showed us everything we needed to know Taught us everything we needed to grow Everything. We needed to show That we did know The day that Bowie died Knew everything was alright Words & Music by Dave Bradley Vocals, guitar, bass, beatboxing by dB Produced and mixed by dB
