David Bowie - Somebody Up There Likes Me lyrics

Let...

He's everybodys token, on everybodys wall

Blessin' all the papers, thanking one and all

Hugging all the babies, kissing all the ladies

Knowing all you think about from writing on the wall

{chorus 1}

He's so divine,

his soul shines

Breaks the night,

sleep tight

His ever lovin' face

smiles on the whole human race

(He says "I'm somebody")

{chorus 2}

He's got his eye on your soul, his hand on your heart

He says "Don't hurry, baby,

somebody up there [somebody] likes me"

He's the sabbath son of the TV tube,

planets wrote the day was due

All the wisest men around

predicted that a man was found

Who looked a lot like you and me, uh,

anyone with sense could see

Nothing left his eye un-moved, he

had the plan, he had to use

{chorus 1 and 2}

Somebody plays my song in tune,

makes me, makes me, makes me stronger for you, babe

Was a way when we were young, that

any man was judged by what he'd done

But now you pick them on the screen

[what they look like] where they've been

{chorus 2}

Leaders come

They hate all. The people know

that given time, the leaders go

Tell me, can they hold you under their spell

Can they walk and hold you as well as a

smile like Valentino?

Could he sell you anything?

{chorus 2}

[somebody, somebody, somebody]

[somebody, somebody]

[somebody, somebody]

[somebody, somebody]

Somebody [somebody]

Somebody [somebody]

Somebody [somebody, somebody]

Yes, somebody [somebody]

Somebody [somebody]

Somebody [somebody, somebody]

Yeah, can't remember [somebody] peace so well

Oh, space to ramble, [somebody] space to boogie

Soul shine [Oow-oow]

He's so divine

He's somebody
