Lyrics for The Width Of The Circle by David Bowie:
| | | Artist: | David Bowie |
| | Album: | Man Who Sold The World | | Track: | The Width Of The Circle | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 95 | | | | Lyrics: | In the corner of the morning in the past
I would sit and blame the master first and
last
All the roads were straight and narrow
And the prayers were small and yellow
And
the rumour spread that I was aging fast
Then I ran across a monster who was sleeping
By a
tree.
And I looked and frowned and the monster was me.
Well,I said hello and I said
hello
And I asked "Why not?" and I replied "I don't know"
So we asked a simple black
bird,who was happy as can be
And he laughed insane and quipped "KAHLIL GIBRAN"
So I cried
for all the others till the day was nearly through
For I realized that God's a young man
too.
So I said "So long" and I waved "Bye-bye"
Smashed my soul and traded my
mind
Got layed by a young bordello,
I was vaguely half asleep,
For which my
reputation swept back home in a drag
And the moral of this magic spell
Negotiates my
hide
When God did take my logic for a ride
He swallowed his pride and puckered his
lips
And showed me the leather belt round his hips
My knees were shaking my cheeks
aflame
He said "You'll never go down to the Gods again"
(Turn around,go
back!)
He struck the ground a cavern appeared
And I smelt the burning pit of
fear
We crashed a thousand yards below
I said "Do it again, do it again"
(Turn
around,go back!)
His nebulous body swayed above
His tongue swollen with devils
love
The snake and I,a venom high
I said "Do it again, do it again"
(Turn around,go
back!)
Breathe,breathe,breathe deeply
And I was seething,breathing deeply
A
spitting sentry,horned and tailed
Waiting for you | | | |
