People stared at the makeup on his face Laughed at his long black hair, his animal grace The boy in the bright blue jeans Jumped up on the stage Lady Stardust sang his songs Of darkness and disgrace And he was alright, the band was altogether Yes he was alright, the song went on forever Yes he was awful nice Really quite out of sight And he sang all night long Femme fatales emerged from shadows To watch this creature fair Boys stood upon their chairs To make their point of view I smiled sadly for a love I could not obey Lady Stardust sang his songs Of darkness and dismay And he was alright, the band was altogether Yes he was alright, his song went on forever And he was awful nice Really quite paradise And he sang all night, all night long Oh how I sighed when they asked if I knew his name Oh that was alright, the band was altogether Yes he was alright and the song went on forever He was awful nice Really quite paradise He sang all night long
