Hey man, oh Henry get of the phone I gotta
Hey man, I gotta straighten my face
This mellow thighed boy just put my spine out of place
Hey man, oh my school days insane
Hey man, oh my work's down the drain
Hey man, he's totally wham bam
He said he had to squeeze it, but then he....and then he....
Ah don't lean on me man cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on suffragette city
Ah don't lean on me man cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my suffragette city
He's alright
Hey man, oh Henry don't be unkind go away
Hey man, I can't take it this time no way
Hey man, ah Judy don't crash here
There's only room for one and here he comes
Ah don't lean on me man cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on suffragette city
Ah don't lean on me man cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my suffragette city
He's alright
Ah don't lean on me man cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on suffragette city
Ah don't lean on me man cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my suffragette city
Ah don't lean on me man cause you can't afford the ticket
I'm back on suffragette city
Ah don't lean on me man cause you ain't got time to check it
You know my suffragette city
It's alright
Ah wham bam thank you ma'am

Suffragette City
Boy George's rendition of "Suffragette City" serves as a vibrant homage to the original David Bowie classic, reimagining the glam rock anthem through the lens of his own distinctive vocal style. While the track is widely recognized as a cornerstone of the 1970s rock canon, George's interpretation highlights his enduring connection to the genre that shaped his early career. This recording showcases his ability to channel theatrical energy and emotional depth, bridging the gap between the original's swagger and his own soulful delivery. As part of a broader discography that spans pop, soul, and rock, the song underscores his versatility as a performer capable of honoring legendary predecessors while maintaining his unique artistic identity.
