Karma Man (Mono)

Karma Man (Mono) - David Bowie (大衛·鮑伊)

Written by：David Bowie

Fingertip sun at sideshow stalls

They throw the balls

At coconut for that hides behind

Colored shades that blind your eyes

Every child's mother holds an ice cream cone

They circle round

Perceived unknown by an eye that peers

From a hole in the tent where no one goes

A figure sitting cross legged on the floor

He's clogged and clothed in saffron robes

His beads are all he owns

Slow down

Slow down

Someone must have said let's slow him down

Slow down

Slow down

It's pictured on the arms of the karma man

Fairy tale skin

Depicting scenes from human zoos

Impermanent toys like peace and war

A gentle face you've seen before

Karma man tattooed on your side

The wheel of life

I see my times and who I've been

I only live now and I don't know why

I struggle hard to take these pictures in

But

All my friends can see is just the pinkness of his skin

Slow down

Slow down

Someone must have said let's slow him down

Slow down

Slow down

It's pictured on the arms of the karma man

Slow down

Slow down

Someone must have said let's slow him down

Slow down

Slow down

It's pictured on the arms of the karma man
