David Bowie - Golden Years lyrics

You won't think outside tradition

And yet you claim to know what's best

We're never gonna progress unless we can offer

better for them

She once had true ambition

Inside that pretty head

And now she's serving breakfasts and her soul is

TRULY dead

Well the fun stops here

You know you're never gonna get there

These are lives we are wasting

This is what they are facing

And you claim to care

Within the limits of the system

This is what we are facing

You can't think outside tradition

And yet you claim to know what's best

We're never gonna progress unless we can offer

better for them

He once had true ambition

Until you struck it dead

And now he's counting car parts cos he failed

your stupid tests
