Oh! You Pretty Things
David Bowie
Wake up you sleepy head Put on some clothes, shake up your bed Put another log on the fire for me I've made some breakfast and coffee Look out my window and what do I see A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me All the nightmares came today And it looks as though they're here to stay What are we coming to No room for me, no fun for you I think about a world to come Where the books were found by the Golden ones Written in pain, written in awe By a puzzled man who questioned What we were here for All the strangers came today And it looks as though they're here to stay [CHORUS:] Oh You Pretty Things Don't you know you're driving your Mamas and Papas insane Oh You Pretty Things Don't you know you're driving your Mamas and Papas insane Let me make it plain ([second time:] Let me say it again) You gotta make way for the Homo Superior Look at your children See their faces in golden rays Don't kid yourself they belong to you They're the start of a coming race The earth is a bitch We've finished our news Homo Sapiens have outgrown their use All the strangers came today And it looks as though they're here to stay [CHORUS]1971 70s 70s high school faves 80s acoustic guitar all stars alternative alternative rock back-in-da-day bang bowie british british rock britpop Britrock calm catchy chameleon chillin and driving choral classic classic rock classic rock 2 classics cool Da Most Recent dance david bowie david bowie only david bowie production david bowie tracks dijdijs favourites dub ebre Eccentric eclectic electronic england english epic Faves favorite songs favorites Favourites Favourites: A-M female vocal fun genius glam glam rock good gorillaz green day happy hba radio hi fidelity Hip-Hop Hipster Classic i am a party girl here is my s indie ken scott production Kingdom Hearts legends london male vocalists Mellow mine must have nice elevator music Old-School oldies oldschool perfect piano piano pounding awesomeness pop Pop-Rock Pop/Rock poprock Prog-Rock proto-punk psychedelic punk rap relaxing rock Rock and Roll rock n roll rockin romance seen live singer-songwriter Smoking music South East The Beatles tracks trip-hop UK Uplifting xander
