Rock ‘N’ Roll Suicide (Live 1973)

Lyrics

[Piano Intro] [Verse 1] Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth You pull on your finger, then another finger, then your cigarette The wall-to-wall is calling, it lingers, but still you forget Oh oh, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide [Verse 2] You're too young to lose it, but you're too old to lose it And the clock waits so patiently on your song When you you walk past the cafe, you can't eat when you've lived too long Oh, no, no, no, you're a rock 'n' roll suicide [Verse 3] Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road But the day breaks instead so you hurry home Don't let the sunlight blast your shadow Don't let the milk float bind your mind You're so natural, religiously unkind [Chorus] Oh no love, you're not alone You're watching yourself but you're too unfair You got your head all tangled up But if I could only make you care Oh no love, you're not alone No matter what or who you've been No matter when or where you've seen All the knives seem to lacerate your brain I've had my share, now I'll help you with the pain You're not alone! Just turn on with me and you're not alone Just turn on with me and you're not alone (Wonderful) Just gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful (Wonderful) I said gimme your hands 'cause you're wonderful (Wonderful) Gimme your hands 'cause your wonderful Gimme your hands 'cause your wonderful Gimme your hand Gimme your hands 'Cause you're wonderful, gimme your hands Gimme your hand baby [Spoken Word Outro: David Bowie] Thank you very much, we love you [Audience Applause] [Audio Recording of "Land Of Hope and Glory"]
