Rock 'n' Roll Suicide

 曲名：Rock 'n' Roll Suicide 歌手：David Bowie 专辑：Live




Time takes a cigarette, puts it in your mouth
You pull on your finger, then another finger, then cigarette
The wall to wall is calling, it lingers, then you forget
Oh oh oh, you're a rock 'n roll suicide

You're too old to lose it, too young to choose it
And the clock waits so patiently on your song
You walk past a cafe, but you don't eat when you've lived too long
Oh, no no no, you're a rock 'n roll suicide

Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road
But the day breaks instead so you hurry home
Don't let the sun blast your shadow, don't let the milk float ride your mind
So natural religiously unkind

Oh no love you're not alone, you're watching yourself but you're too unfair
You've got your head all tangled 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, I'll help you with the pain.
