David Bowie - Scary Monsters: Wikipedia Album Entry
"Scary Monsters... and Super Creeps" is an album by David Bowie, released in September 1980 by rca Records.
It was Bowie's final studio album for the label and his first following the so-called "Berlin Trilogy" of "Low", ""Heroes"" and "Lodger" (1977-1979). Though considered significant in artistic terms, the trilogy had proved less successful commercially.
With "Scary Monsters", however, Bowie achieved what biographer David Buckley called "the perfect balance" and the album peaked at no.1 in its second week of release.

David Bowie - Scary Monsters Lyrics
David Bowie - Because You're Young Lyrics
Psycho delicate girl, come out to play
Little metal faced boy, don't stay away
They're so war torn and resigned she can't talk anymore
What are they trying to prove? What would they like to find?
David Bowie - Scream Like A Baby Lyrics
Well I wouldn't buy no merchandise
And I wouldn't go to war
And I mixed with other colours
But the nurse doesn't care
David Bowie - Up The Hill Backwards Lyrics
The vacuum created by the arrival of freedom
And the possibilities it seems to offer
It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it
It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it
David Bowie - Teenage Wildlife Lyrics
Well, how come you only want tomorrow
With its promise of something hard to do
A real life adventure worth more than pieces of gold
Blue skies above and sun on your arms strength your stride
David Bowie - Scary Monsters Lyrics
She had an horror of rooms
She was tired you can't hide beat
When I looked in her eyes
They were blue but nobody home
David Bowie - Kingdom Come Lyrics
Well, I walked in the pouring rain
And I heard a voice that cries, "It's all in vain"
The voice of doom was shining in my room
I just need one day, somewhere far away
David Bowie - It's No Game (Part 1) Lyrics
Silhouettes and shadows watch the revolution
No more free steps to heaven
Just walkie-talkie, Heaven or Earth
Just big heads and drums
David Bowie - It's No Game (Part 2) Lyrics
Silhouettes and shadows watch the revolution
No more free steps to heaven
Just walkie-talkie, Heaven or Earth
Just big heads and drums
