Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette The wall-to-wall's calling, it lingers, then you forget You're a rock 'n' roll suicide
You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it And the clock waits so patiently on your song You walk past the cafe, but you don't eat when you've lived too long You're a rock 'n' roll suicide
Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road But day breaks instead so you hurry home Don't let the sun blast your shadow Don't let the milk floats ride your mind So natural-religiously unkind
Oh no love! you're not alone You're watching yourself but you're too unfair You got your head all tangled up but if I could only make you care Oh no love! you're not alone No matter what or who you've been No matter when or where you've seen All the knives seem to lacerate your brain I've had my share so I'll help you with the pain You're not alone Just turn on with me You're not alone gimme your hands You're not alone gimme your hands You're wonderful gimme your hands You're wonderful gimme your hands...
the last drag of Ziggy (Ciggy) Stardust

Lily is dancing on the table We've all been Pushed Too far I guess on days like this you know who your friends are Just another Dead Fag to you, that's all Just another Light missing on a long taxi ride taxi ride
And I'm down to Your last cigarette and this "We are one" crap as you're invading This thing you call Love - she smiles way too much but I'm glad you're on my side, sure I'm glad you're on my side still
You think you deserve a trust fund Just because you Want one Sure you talk the talk when you need to I fear the whole world is starting to Believe you Just another Dead Fag to you, that's all Just another Light missing in a long taxi line taxi line
And I'm down to Your last cigarette and this "We are one" crap as you're invading This thing you call Love - she smiles way too much but I'm glad you're on my side, sure I'm glad you're on my side still
Lily is dancing on the table We've all been pushed Too far today Even a glamorous Bitch can be in need this is where you know the Honey from the Killer Bees and I'm glad you're on my side sure I'm glad you're on my side sure I'm glad you're on my side still
Got a long taxi ride Got a long taxi ride

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink No, no, no
I'm so tired, I don't know what to do I'm so tired, my mind is set on you I wonder should I call you but I know what you'd do You'd say I'm putting you on But it's no joke It's doing me harm, you know I can't sleep I can't stop my brain, you know it's three weeks I'm going insane You know I'd give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind
I'm so tired, I'm feeling so upset Although I'm so tired, I'll have another cigarette And curse Sir Walter Raleigh He was such a stupid get You'd say I'm putting you on But it's no joke It's doing me harm, you know I can't sleep I can't stop my brain, you know it's three weeks I'm going insane You know I'd give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind give you everything I've got for a little peace of mind
Sir Walter Raleigh introduced tobacco to England.
Legend has it that the tradition of offering a prisoner a final cigarette before execution started with Raleigh...

Ahhh... Well, there's a Martha.. This is very thought provoking Athenais.. The clues in Vivians 'demise', the cigarettes, Paul was a smoker.. Tori seems to have the inside line... Now Bowie's song was Rock n Roll Suicide.. Do you suppose that Paul's actions leading up to his replacement could be considered suicide?

Tori Amos is a Jane Asher lookalike. She well knows that. So she is acting like Jane remembering those times...
