The wild-eyed boy from Bromley
Had madness run in the family
So his mind moved with quickness
To try to out-run the sickness

Underwood and under stars
Don't look surprised
Countdown commenced
Prepare for launch into the skies

Rhythm and blues
To choose for theatrically
Failure and loss
Bring changes thematically

He met the art and underworld
He gave himself a pretty girl
Who broke his heart
With nothing to lose but everything
He struggled forward
And sold the world
A weirdo tart

Money and time
And tours and needs
Before all fell
Into the deep freeze
No escape
Witches craved his magic seed
Honey and cocaine are all he needs
No escape

And then he found a modern love
Which pacified his tortured head
He made a play at Hollywood
Which puffed up his swollen head
His mind slowed
His family curse caught him unaware

He tried to find his missing heart
He followed the crowd in the dark
Where no one could help him play the part

And then his body broke
And then he stopped trying so hard
And the magic returned

His mind and heart and all
Replayed the rise and fall
