David Bowie Teenage Wildlife song lyrics

Well, how come you only want tomorrow

With its pronise of something hard to do

A real life adventure woth more than pieces of gold

Blue skies above and sun on your arms strength your stride

And hope in those squeky clean eyes

You'll get chilly receptions everywhere you go

Blinded with desire I guess the season is on

So you train by shadow boxing, search for the truth

But it's all, but it's all used up

Break open your million dollar weapon

And push your luck, still you push, still you push your luck

A broken nosed mogul are you one of the new wave boys?

Same old thing in brand new drag comes sweeping into view

As ugly as a teenage millionaire pretending it's a whizz kid world

you'll take me aside and say

"Well, David, what shall i do? They wait for me in the hallway"

I'll say "don't ask me, I don't know any hallways"

But they move in numbers and the've got me in a corner

I feel like a group of one, no no they can't do this to me

I'm not some piece of teenage wildlife

Those midwives to history put on their bloody robes

The word is that hunted one is uot there on his own

And you're alone for maybe the last time

And your breathe for a long time

Then you howl like a wolf in a trap

And you daren't look behind

You fall to the ground like a leaf from the tree

And look up one time at that vast blue sky

Scream out aloud as they shoot you down

No no, I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife

I'm not a piece of teenage wildlife

And no one will have seen and no one will confess

The fingerprints will prove that you couldn't pass the test

There'll be others on the line filing past, who'll whisper low

I miss you he really had to go well each to his own, he was

Another piece of teenage wildlife

Another piece of teenage wildlife, another piece of teenage wild

Wild

Wild

Wild
