Ziggy Stardust, 50 anos [10/11]

Foi a 16 de junho de 1972 que surgiu The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, álbum em que David Bowie inventava a sua personagem mais mítica, redefinindo a carreira e, mais do que isso, abrindo um capítulo do rock consagrado às possibilidades de permanente discussão da identidade artística, pública e privada. São 11 canções, aqui metodicamente recordadas — esta é a décima, Suffragette City.

Hey man, oh leave me alone you know
Hey man, oh Henry, get off the phone, I gotta
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed chick just put my spine out of place
Hey man, my schooldays insane
Hey man, my work's down the drain
Hey man, well she's a total blam-blam
She said she had to squeeze it but she then she

Oh don't lean on me man, 'cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on Suffragette City
Oh don't lean on me man
'Cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City
Is outta sight she's all right

Hey man, oh Henry, don't be unkind, go away
Hey man, I can't take you this time, no way
Hey man, droogie don't crash here
There's only room for one and here she comes, here she comes

Oh don't lean on me man, 'cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on Suffragette City
Oh don't lean on me man
'Cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my Suffragette City
Is outta sight she's all right

Oh hit me

Oh don't lean on me man, 'cause you can't afford the ticket
