Life On Mars?

Album: Hunky Dory Year: 1971

LIFE ON MARS by DAVID BOWIE It's a god-awful small affair To the girl with the mousy hair But her mummy is yelling "No" And her daddy has told her to go But her friend is nowhere to be seen Now she walks through her sunken dream To the seat with the clearest view And she's hooked to the silver screen But the film is a saddening bore 'Cause she's lived it ten times or more She could spit in the eyes of fools As they ask her to focus on Sailors fighting in the dance hall Oh man! Look at those cavemen go It's the freakiest show Take a look at the Lawman Beating up the wrong guy Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know He's in the best selling show Is there life on Mars? It's on America's tortured brow That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow Now the workers have struck for fame 'Cause Lennon's on sale again See the mice in their million hordes From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads Rule Britannia is out of bounds To my mother, my dog, and clowns But the film is a saddening bore 'Cause I wrote it ten times or more It's about to be writ again As I ask you to focus on Sailors fighting in the dance hall Oh man! Look at those cavemen go It's the freakiest show Take a look at the Lawman Beating up the wrong guy Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know He's in the best selling show Is there life on Mars?

Eight Line Poem

Album: Hunky Dory Year: 1971

EIGHT LINE POEM by DAVID BOWIE The tactful cactus by your window Surveys the prairie of your room The mobile spins to its collision Clara puts her head between her paws They've opened shops down West side Will all the cacti find a home But the key to the city Is in the sun that pins the branches to the sky

Oh! You Pretty Things

Album: Hunky Dory Year: 1971

OH! YOU PRETTY THINGS by DAVID BOWIE Wake up you sleepy head Put on some clothes, shake up your bed Put another log on the fire for me I've made some breakfast and coffee I look out my window what do I see A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me All the nightmares came today And it looks as though they're here to stay What are we coming to No room for me, no fun for you I think about a world to come Where the books were found by the Golden ones Written in pain, written in awe By a puzzled man who questioned What we came here for All the strangers came today And it looks as though they're here to stay Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things) Don't you know you're driving your Mamas and Papas insane Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things) Don't you know you're driving your Mamas and Papas insane Let me make it plain You gotta make way for the Homo Superior Look at your children See their faces in golden rays Don't kid yourself they belong to you They're the start of a coming race The earth is a bitch We've finished our news Homo Sapiens have outgrown their use All the strangers came today And it looks as though they're here to stay Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things) Don't you know you're driving your Mamas and Papas insane Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things) Don't you know you're driving your Mamas and Papas insane Let me make it plain You gotta make way for the Homo Superior

Changes

Album: Hunky Dory Year: 1971 

CHANGES by DAVID BOWIE

Oh yeah Mm Still don't know what I was waiting for And my time was running wild A million dead-end streets and Every time I thought I'd got it made It seemed the taste was not so sweet So I turned myself to face me But I've never caught a glimpse Of how the others must see the faker I'm much too fast to take that test Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes Turn and face the strange (Ch-ch-Changes) Don't want to be a richer man Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes Turn and face the strange (Ch-ch-Changes) Just gonna have to be a different man Time may change me But I can't trace time I watch the ripples change their size But never leave the stream Of warm impermanence So the days float through my eyes But stil the days seem the same And these children that you spit on As they try to change their worlds Are immune to your consultations They're quite aware of what they're going through Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes Turn and face the strange (Ch-ch-Changes) Don't tell them to grow up and out of it Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes Turn and face the stranger (Ch-ch-Changes) Where's your shame You've left us up to our necks in it Time may change me But you can't trace time Strange fascination, fascinating me Ah changes are taking the pace I'm going through Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes (Turn and face the strange) Ch-ch-Changes Oh, look out you rock 'n rollers Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes (Turn and face the strange) Ch-ch-Changes Pretty soon now you're gonna get older Time may change me But I can't trace time I said that time may change me But I can't trace time

Hi guys, I just created a new blog where I will be posting the lyrics of David Bowie's songs, because they are brilliant, spooky and generally just entertaining and beautiful. If you like Bowie or have followers/friends who do, please let them know about my blog, as I want to share the Bowie love (^_^)v 

Thanks!
