The Width of a Circle (Live) 歌詞
The Width Of A Circle (Live) - David Bowie
In the corner of the morning in the past
I would sit and blame
The master first and last
All the roads were straight and narrow
And the prayers were small and yellow
And the rumour spread
That I was aging fast
I ran across a monster
Who was sleeping
By a tree
And I looked and frowned
And the monster was me
Well I said hello and I said hello
And I asked Why not
And I replied I don't know
So we asked a simple black bird
Who was happy as can be
And he laughed insane
And quipped kahlil gibran
I cried for all the others till
The day was nearly through
For I realized that God's a young man too
When I said So long and
I waved Bye bye
And I smashed my soul
And traded my mind
Got laid by a young bordello
I was vaguely half asleep
Which my reputation
Swept back home in drag
And the moral of this magic spell
Negotiates my hide
When God did take my logic for a ride
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
He swallowed his pride
And puckered his lips
And showed me the leather
Belt round his hips
Oh My knees were shaking my cheeks aflame
He said You'll never go
Down to the Gods again
Turn around go back
He struck the ground
A cavern appeared
And I smelt the burning pit of fear
We crashed a thousand yards below
I said Do it again
Do it again
Turn around go back
His nebulous body swayed above
His tongue swollen with devil's love
The snake and I
A venom high
I said Do it again
Do it again
Turn around go back
Breathe breathe breathe deeply
And I was seething
Breathing deeply
I was Spitting sentry
Horned and tailed
Waiting for you
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
