Well I stood stone like at midnight
Suspended in my masquerade
I combed my hair till it was just right
And commanded the night brigade
I was open to pain and crossed by the rain
And I walked on a crooked crutch
I strolled all alone through a fallout zone
Came out with my soul untouched
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd
But when they said sit down I stood up
Ooh-ohh ooh hoo growin up
The flag of piracy flew from my mast
My sails were set wing to wing
I had a jukebox graduate for first mate
She couldnt sail but she sure could sing
I pushed the b-52 and bombed em with the blues
With my gear set stubborn on standing
I broke all the rules, strafed my old high school
Never once gave thought to landing, no
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd
But when they said come down I threw up
Ooh-ooh growin up
I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere
And you know its really hard to hold your breath
And I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared
I was the cosmic kid in full costume dress
Well my feet finally took root in the earth
But I got me a nice little place in the stars
And I swear I found the key to the universe
In the engine of an old parked car
I hid in the mother breast of the crowd
But when they said move down I moved up
Ooh ooh ooh, dont you know that Im growin up
Ooh ooh ooh, I cant help it that Im growin up (ah)
David Bowie (pronounced ['bo?.wi] in English), stage name of David Robert Jones (Brixton, 8 January 1947 – New York, 10 January 2016), was a British singer, songwriter, musician, and actor. Active from the mid-1960s until his death in 2016, Bowie spanned five decades in rock music, reinventing his style and image over time through iconic characters like Ziggy Stardust, Halloween Jack, and The Thin White Duke. His music ranged from acoustic folk to electronic, encompassing glam rock, soul, and krautrock, leaving an indelible mark on musical history. Bowie collaborated with artists across generations, including Iggy Pop, Queen, and Nile Rodgers. Beyond music, Bowie also pursued acting, appearing in films such as *The Man Who Fell to Earth* (1976), *Furyo* (1983), and *Basquiat* (1996). Some of his most notable albums include *The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars* (1972), *Station to Station* (1976), and *Heroes* (1977). Among his most representative songs are *Space Oddity*, *Changes*, *Let's Dance*, and *Heroes*.
