From The Buddha of Suburbia [Original Sountrack] (1993) by David Bowie

Buddha of Suburbia (Bowie) - 4:29

Living in lies by the railway line
Pushing the hair from my eyes
Elvis is English and climbs the hills
Can't tell the bullshit from the lies
Screaming along in South London
Vicious but ready to learn
Sometimes I fear that the whole world is queer
Sometimes but always in vain

CHORUS
So I'll wait until we're sane
Wait until we're blessed and all the same
Full of blood, loving life and all it's got to give
Englishman going insane
Down on my knees in suburbia
Down on myself in every way

With great expectations I change all my clothes
Mustn't grumble at silver and gold
Screaming above Central London
Never bored, so I'll never get old

CHORUS

Day after
Day after
Day
Day after
Zane, Zane, Zane
Ouvre le chien
Day after
Day
Day after
Zane, Zane, Zane
Ouvre le chien
Day after

Sex and the Church (Bowie) - 6:23

Though the idea of confession is said to be
The union of Christ and his bride
The Christian
It's all very puzzling

Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
And the church... and the church

All the great mystic religions
Put strong emphasis, on
The redeeming spiritual qualities
Of sex... of sex
Christianity
Has been pretty modern
About sex

Of sex
Of sex
Of sex
Of sex
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex... sex

I think there is a union
Between the flesh and the spirit
Sex and the church
Sex and the church

All religions' mother (spoken)

VERSE (twice)
Give me the freedom of spirit
And the joys of the flesh
And sex... sex...
Sex and the church

CHORUS (twice)
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
And the church... and the church
Sex
Sex
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex... sex... sex

Sex

Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex and the church
Sex... sex

Bleed Like a Craze, Dad (Bowie) - 5:23

Shine shine shine (x6)

Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the Krays

Easy come
Come, gather that
Gather valium of your dead man
Walks out the drunk from the jazz

Astral, Kestrel
Fed into the featherfall
Fed him on a pencil carving
You will never get

Shine shine shine
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the Krays
Shine shine shine
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the Krays

Seek for a leather journey
Never stopped to think about
Hollywood King Kong
Domino on the side

Street light, looking right
Looking to the parlous parlours
Party on the dead
Put a net through his headache

Shine shine shine (x3)

Blee-eed, bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the Krays

Living on a movie
All the Shirley/Charlie films on film
Come together, party
Footnote on the footstone

Shine shine shine
Bleeds like a craze, Dad
These are the Krays

Shine shine shine
Shine shine shine

CHORUS (x6)
Bleed like a craze, Dad
These are the Krays

Strangers When We Meet (Bowie) - 4:58

(Yooou, yooou, yooou)
(Yooou, yooou, yooou)

All our friends
Now seem so thin and frail
Slinky secrets
Hotter than the sun

No peachy prayers
No trendy rush of faith
I'm with you
So I can't go on

CHORUS
All my violence
Raining tears upon the sheet
I'm bewildered
For we're strangers when we meet

Blank screen TV
Preening ourselves in the snow
Forget my name
But I'm over you

Splendid sunrise
And it's a dying world
Humming Rheingold
We scavenge up our clothes

CHORUS
All my violence
Raging tears upon the sheets
I'm resentful
For we're strangers when we meet

Cold tired fingers
Tapping out your memories
Halfway sadness
Dazzled by the new

Your embrace
It was all that I feared
That whirling room
We trade by vendu

Steely resolve
Is falling from me
My poor soul
All bruised passivity
All your regrets
Ride rough-shod over me
I'm so glad
That we're strangers when we meet
I'm so thankful
That we're strangers when we meet
I'm in clover
For we're strangers when we meet
Heel head over
But we're strangers when we meet

Strangers when we meet (repeat ad. inf.)

Dead Against It (Bowie) - 5:47

And when she drowns
Within and in the fizzy gin, begins to sigh
"Good God oh my" I cry and die and lie beside

She is the apple in my eye
She talked to God
I couldn't cope
Or'd hope eloped
A dope she roped
This salty lie

CHORUS
And when she's dreaming, I believe
And when she's reading, I retreat
Can't believe her
Telling me she's dead again
Telling me she's dead against it

And deep my wound
Within for every second chance it was thy-tore
From deep within, despite the rain, my words are worn

She loves to talk into the phone
No matter who
No matter when
No matter where
No better than the faulty line

CHORUS

Untitled No. 1 (Bowie) - 5:02

In mornings she's so regal that the valley sighs
In the chilly sea that killed her real slow
Now we're swimming up farther with the doll by our sides
Fill the cup with these sleepy souls

CHORUS
Sleepy Kapoor
It's clear that some things never take
Sleepy Kapoor
Please, heal these tears
Sleepy Kapoor

She will feel like at tea, make me laugh all along
With such feats like sex only brought upon
Oh lady, oh baby, maybe I'll live my lies alone
Jesus, up here, hear me, I, up-up-up above

CHORUS

Please heal these tears

CHORUS repeat

Some things never
Never never
