Roxette

“Suffragette City” is a single by David Bowie. Recorded towards the end of the Ziggy Stardust sessions, “Suffragette City” is a trademark piece of early 1970s Bowie glam, with a piano riff heavily influenced by Little Richard, a lyrical reference to the film A Clockwork Orange (the word “droogie”) and the sing-along hook "Wham bam thank you ma'am!”, and an influence on the punk rock movement that came several years after the song's release.

It"s a madman situation
Reminiscing in the rain
And I lost your love again
I call your name

And I don"t want to think about it
When I go to sleep at night
Can you hear it in the wind?
I call your name, I call your name

And I close the door behind me
And I turn the lights all down
There"s no one there beside me
I call your name

And I don"t want to think about it
But I wind up all the sam
Nothing"ll ever change
I call your name, I call your name...
Lie awake under the stars
Lie awake under the stars
