so i just wanted to post some bad ass lyrics to one o my favorite bowie song:

They pulled in just behind the bridge
He lays her down, he frowns
"Gee my life's a funny thing, am I
still too young?"
He kissed her then and there
She took his ring, took his babies
It took him minutes, took her nowhere
Heaven knows, she'd have taken anything, but

All night
She wants the young American
Young American, young American, she wants the young American
All right
She wants the young American

Scanning life through the picture
window
She finds the slinky vagabond
He coughs as he passes her red
Mustang, but
Heaven forbid, she'll take anything
But the freak, and his type, all for
nothing
Misses a step and cuts his hand, but
Showing nothing, he swoops like a song
She cries "Where have all Papa's heroes gone?"

All the way from Washington
Her bread-winner begs off the bathroom floor
"We live for just these twenty years
Do we have to die for the fifty more?"

All night
He wants the young American
Young American, young American,
he wants the young American
All right
He wants the young American

Do you remember, your President Nixon?
Do you remember, the bills you have to pay?
Or even yesterday?

Have you been the un-American?
Just you and your idol sing falsetto
'bout Leather, leather everywhere, and
Not a myth left from the ghetto
Well, well, well, would you carry a razor
In case, just in case of depression?
Sit on your hands on a bus of survivors
Blushing at all the afro-Sheilas
Ain't that close to love?
Well, ain't that poster love?
Well, it ain't that Barbie doll
Her heart's been broken just like you

All night
You want the young American
Young American, young American, you want the young American
All right
You want the young American

You ain't a pimp and you ain't a hustler
A pimp's got a Cadi and a lady got a Chrysler
Black's got respect, and white's got his soul train
Mama's got cramps, and look at your hands ache
(I heard the news today, oh boy)
I got a suite and you got defeat
Ain't there a man who can say no more?
And, ain't there a woman I can
sock on the jaw?
And, ain't there a child I can hold without judging?
Ain't there a pen that will write before they die?
Ain't you proud that you've still got faces?
Ain't there one damn song that can make me
break down and cry?

All night
I want the young American
Young American, young American, I want the young American
All right
I want the young American

i want what you want, i want what you want
you want me i want you you want i want you want

all i want is the young american

really, endo, it was one of the best concerts i've ever attended. not so much the tuesday show (which was still awesome) but the wednesday show was fantastic.

i have a feeling there will be another US leg when he finishes in hong kong and oz.

I hadda go out and buy a Wed MD player last weekend so I could record assloads of Bowie to take with me to work, just so I wouldn't get the DB DTs.

And this isn't to mention that I have been enjoying morning tea in my lovely new Reality mug.

And I hadda show off my concert program to everyone at work.

Oh, and I finally found the MOJO Bowie special last weekend, and I've been drooling over it on a regular basis.

Shit, I even bought some Macy Gray at the wrecka stow last week.

PROGNOSIS: HELPLESS...HAPPILY HELPLESS!!

TRON said:

SassyBritches said:
