Picture a bright blue ball just spinning spinning free [00:00:52]
Dizzy with eternity [00:00:57]
Paint it with a skin of sky brush in some clouds and sea [00:01:01]
Call it home for you and me [00:01:06]
A peaceful place or so it looks from space [00:01:12]
A closer look reveals the human race [00:01:17]
Full of hope full of grace is the human face [00:01:22]
But afraid we may lay our home to waste [00:01:26]
There's a fear down here we can't forget [00:01:34]
Hasn't got a name just yet [00:01:39]
Always awake always around [00:01:44]
Singing ashes to ashes all fall down [00:01:49]
Ashes to ashes all fall down [00:01:52]
Now watch as the ball revolves and the nighttime falls [00:01:55]
And again the hunt begins and again the bloodwind calls [00:01:59]
By and by again the morning sun will rise [00:02:05]
But the darkness never goes from some men's eyes [00:02:09]
It strolls the sidewalks and it rolls the streets [00:02:14]
Staking turf dividing up meat [00:02:20]
Nightmare spook piece of heat [00:02:25]
It's you and me you and me [00:02:29]
Whoa click flashblade in ghetto night [00:02:37]
Rudie's looking for a fight [00:02:42]
Rat cat alley roll them bones [00:02:47]
Need that cash to feed that jones [00:02:52]
And the politician's throwing stones [00:02:55]
Singing ashes to ashes all fall down [00:02:57]
Commissars and pin-striped bosses role the dice [00:03:03]
Any way they fall guess who gets to pay the price [00:03:07]
Money green or proletarian gray [00:03:12]
Selling guns instead of food today [00:03:17]
So the kids they dance and shake their bones [00:03:25]
And the politician's throwing stones [00:03:27]
Singing ashes to ashes all fall down [00:03:29]
Heartless powers try to tell us what to think [00:03:56]
If the spirit's sleeping then the flesh is ink yeah [00:04:01]
History's page it is thusly carved in stone [00:04:06]
The future's here we are it we are on our own [00:04:09]
On our own [00:04:17]
On our own [00:04:22]
On our own [00:04:27]
On our own [00:04:32]
On our own [00:04:37]
On our own [00:04:42]
On our own [00:04:46]
On our own [00:04:51]
On our own [00:04:54]
On our own [00:04:57]
On our own [00:04:59]
If the game is lost then we're all the same [00:07:31]
No one left to place or take the blame [00:07:36]
We will leave this place an empty stone [00:07:41]
Or that shinning ball of blue we can call our home [00:07:44]
So the kids they dance they shake their bones [00:07:53]
And the politicians throwing stones [00:07:56]
Singing ashes to ashes all fall down [00:07:58]
Shipping powders back and forth [00:08:24]
Singing black goes south and white comes north [00:08:28]
And the whole world full of petty wars [00:08:34]
Singing I got mine and you got yours [00:08:39]
And the current fashions set the pace [00:08:44]
Lose your step fall out of grace [00:08:49]
And the radical he rant and rage [00:08:54]
Singing someone got to turn the page [00:08:59]
And the rich man in his summer home [00:09:04]
Singing Just leave well enough alone [00:09:09]
But his pants are down his cover's blown [00:09:14]
And the politicians throwing stones [00:09:19]
So the kids they dance they shake their bones [00:09:22]
Cause its all too clear we're on our own [00:09:24]
Sing ashes to ashes all fall down [00:09:27]
Ashes to ashes all fall down [00:09:29]
Picture a bright blue ball just spinning spinning free [00:09:33]
