David Bowie - African Night Flight lyrics

African nightmare one-time Mormon

More men fall in Hullabaloo men

I slide to the nearest bar

Undermine chairman

I went too far

Bent on a windfall

rent a sony

Wonder

how the dollar went down

Gotta get a word to Elizabeth's father

Hey no, he wished me well

Seemed like another day

I could fly

into the eye of god on high

His burning eye will see me through

One of these days, one of these days

Gotta get a word through one of these days

Asanti habari habari habari

Asanti nabana nabana nabana

Getting in mood for a Mombassa night flight

Pushing my luck, gonna fly like a mad thing

Bare strip takeoff

skimming over Rhino

Born in slumber less than peace

Struggle with a child

whose screaming dreaming

Drowned by the props all steely sunshine

Sick of you, sick of me

Lust for the free life

Quashed and maimed

Like a valuable loved one

Left unnamed

Seemed like another day

I could fly

into the eye of god on high

Over the bushland over the trees

Wise like Orangutan that was me

His burning eye will see me through

One of these days, one of these days

Gotta get a word through one of these days

Asanti habari habari habari

Asanti nabana nabana nabana
