Whale of a lie like they hope it was
Only three lines in the first verse.
Good to see Bowie getting props on here, mine would be

Armalite, street lights, night sights

In just a few weeks time Pinball Wizard will be fifty years old, yet every time I hear it it sounds to me like it was recorded last week.From Soho down to Brighton I must have played them all

No acoustic guitars were harmed in the making of this revelation.

You walked into the party, like you were walking onto a yacht
Your hat strategically dipped below one eye, your scarf, it was apricot
You had one eye on the mirror, as you watched yourself Gavotte
And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner, they'd be your partner, and...
