David Bowie - 1984



Someday they won't let you

but now you must agree

The times they are a telling and the changing isn't free.

You've read it in the tealeaves

the tracks are on T.V.

Beware the silent roar of 1984.

They'll break your pretty cranium and fill it full of air

And tell you that you're eighty

but lover

you won't care.

You'll be shooting up as usual like tomorrow isn't there

Beware the silent roar of 1984.

Come see


come see

remember me?

We played out an allnight movie role.

You said it would last but I guess we enroled in 1984.

Who could ask for more? 1984 - who could ask for more?

I'm looking for a vehicle

I'm looking for a ride

I'm looking for a party

I'm looking for a side

I'm looking for the treason that I knew in '65

Beware the savage jaw of 1984.

Come see

come see

remember me? . . .
