I've Never Responded Well To Entrenched Negative

Mine Is Really - Ziggy Stardust, Characters, "let's Dance." That's Me In The American.

It's Odd But Even When I Was A Kid, I Would Write About 'old And Other Times' As Though I Had A Lot Of Years Behind Me. Now I Do, So There Is A Difference In The Weight Of Memory.

I'm A Phallus In Pigtails, And There's Blood On My Nose, And My Tissue Is Rotting Where The Rats Chew My Bones. And My Eye Sockets Empty, See Nothing But Pain, I Keep Having This Brainstorm About Twelve Times A Day.

On "tonight" I Think I Was Torn Dreadfully Between Writing What I Wanted To Write, But Keeping It In A Style That Would Follow Up What I Had Just Done. That's Where I Feel I Was Untrue To Myself As An Artist . . . That Album And, To A Lesser Extent, "never Let Me Down."

I Just Put Drugs Down To Luck. I Persevere Quite Honestly, And I've Got A Fair Amount Of Discipline That Keeps Me Out Of Deep Water.
