DAVID BOWIE - Five Years lyrics

rate me

Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing<br>News had just come over, we had five years left to cry in<br>News guy wept and told us, earth was really dying<br>Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying<br>I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies<br>I saw boys, toys electric irons and t.v.'s<br>My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare<br>I had to cram so many things to store everything in there<br>And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people<br>And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people<br>I never thought I'd need so many people<br><br>A girl my age went off her head, hit some tiny children<br>If the black hadn't a-pulled her off, I think she would have killed them<br>A soldier with a broken arm, fixed his stare to the wheels of a cadillac<br>A cop knelt and kissed the feet of a priest, and a queer threw up at the sight of that<br><br>I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long<br>Smiling and waving and looking so fine, don't think<br>You knew you were in this song<br>And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor<br>And I thought of ma and I wanted to get back there<br>Your face, your race, the way that you talk<br>I kiss you, you're beautiful, I want you to walk<br><br>We've got five years, stuck on my eyes<br>Five years, what a surprise<br>We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot<br>Five years, that's all we've got<br>We've got five years, what a surprise<br>Five years, stuck on my eyes<br>We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot<br>Five years, that's all we've got<br>We've got five years, stuck on my eyes<br>Five years, what a surprise<br>We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot<br>Five years, that's all we've got<br>We've got five years, what a surprise<br>We've got five years, stuck on my eyes<br>We've got five years, my brain hurts a lot<br>Five years, that's all we've got<br>Five years<br>Five years<br>Five years<br>Five years
