Lyrics for Teenage Wildlife by David Bowie:
| | | Artist: | David Bowie |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Teenage Wildlife | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 100 | | | | Lyrics: | well how come you only want tomorrow
with its promise of something hard to do
a real life adventure worth more than pieces of gold
blue skies above and sun on your arms
strength in your stride
and hope in those squeaky clean eyes
you'll get chilly
receptions everywhere you go
blinded with desire i guess the season is on
so you train by shadow boxing, search for the truth
but it's all, but it's all used
up
break open your million-dollar weapon
still you push, still you
push your luck
a broken-nosed mogul are you
one of the new wave
boys
same old thing in brand new drag
comes sweeping into
view
as ugly as a teenage millionaire
pretending it's a whizz-kid
world
and you'll take me aside and say
'david what shall i do
they wait for me in the hallways'
and i'll say don't ask me i don't know any
hallways
but they move in numbers and they've got me in a corner
and i
feel like a group of one
no, no they can't do this to me
i'm not some piece
of teenage wildlife
those midwives to history put on their bloody robes
and the word
is that the hunted one is out there on his own
and you're alone for maybe the last
time
and you breathe for a long time
then you howl like a wolf in a trap
and you
daren't look behind
you fall to the ground like a leaf on the tree
and look up one
time at that vast blue sky
scream out aloud as they shoot you down
no, no i'm not a piece
of teenage wildlife
i'm not a piece of teenage wildlife
and no one will have
seen and no one will confess
the fingerprints will prove that you couldn't pass the
test
and there'll be others on the line filing past
who'll whisper
low
i miss you he had to go
well each to his own
he was just
another piece of teenage wildlife
another piece of teenage wildlife
another piece of teenage wildlife
