David Bowie – The Man Who Sold The World: Lyrics and Music Video
The Man Who Sold The World Lyrics
We passed upon the stair
We spoke of was and when
Although i wasn’t there
He said i was his friend
Which came as some surprise
I spoke into his eyes, “i thought you died alone
A long long time ago”
Oh no, not me
I never lost control
You’re face to face
With the man who sold the world
I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years i roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
At all the millions here
We must have died alone
A long long time ago
Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You’re face to face
With the man who sold the world
Who knows? not me
We never lost control
You’re face to face
With the man who sold the world

Fashion
There’s a brand new dance but i don’t know its name That people from bad homes do again and again It’s big and it’s bland full of tension and fear They do it over there but we don’t do it here…
