And should we crush his sweet hands?

Oh

[Verse 3]

Ziggy played for time

Jiving us that we were voodoo

The kids were just crass, he was the nazz

With God-given ass, he took it all too far

But boy, could he play guitar

Ziggy sucked up into his mind (Ah)

Like a leper messiah

When the kids had killed the man

I had to break up the band

[Outro]

Oh, yeah

Ooh

Ziggy played guitar
