Rock 'N' Roll Suicide (Live 1973)

[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
