Bowie, David : Heathen
The old dear returns to form
Finally binning the zeitgeist-mounting personas that have both defined and haunted his career, Bowie 's 25th studio album sees our original friend electric embark upon a largely unaffected anniversary waltz through the velvet-lined vaults of his past. And it's great. All of it. Even the bits where the grand old duchess of dilettantism succumbs to nursery-rhyme whimsy (the 'Space...

David Bowie - Heathen Lyrics
David Bowie - 5. 15 The Angels Have Gone Lyrics
5:15
I'm changing trains
This little town
Let me down
David Bowie - Slow Burn Lyrics
Here shall we live in this terrible town
Where the price for our eyes shall squeeze them tight like a fist
And the walls shall have eyes and the doors shall have ears
But we'll dance in the dark and they'll play with our lives
David Bowie - Slip Away Lyrics
Oogie waits for just another day
Drags his bones to see the Yankees play
Bones boy talks and flickers gray
Oh, they slip away
David Bowie - I've Been Waiting for You Lyrics
(I've been looking, I've been looking)
(I've been looking, I've been looking)
I've been looking
For a woman
David Bowie - I Would Be Your Slave Lyrics
Walking in the snowy stream
Let me understand
Drifting down a silent path
Stumbling over land
David Bowie - I Took a Trip on a Gemini Spacecraft Lyrics
I took a trip
On a gemini spacecraft
And I thought about you
I passed through the shadow of jupiter

David Bowie - Heathen Lyrics
Steel on the skyline
Sky made of glass
Made for a real world
All things must pass
David Bowie - Everyone Says 'hi' Lyrics
Said you took a big trip
They said you moved away
Happened oh, so quietly
They say
David Bowie - Cactus Lyrics
Sittin' here wishing on a cement floor
Just wishin' that I had just something you wore
I put it on when I go lonely
Will you take off your dress and send it to me?
David Bowie - Afraid Lyrics
I wish I was smarter
I got so lost on the shore
I wish I was taller
Things really matter to me
David Bowie - A Better Future Lyrics
Please donât tear this world asunder
Please take back this fear weâre under
I demand a better future
Or I might just stop wanting you
David Bowie - Sunday Lyrics
Nothing remains
We could run when the rain slows
Look for the cars or signs of life
Where the heat goes
