David Bowie - The Pretty Things Are Going To Hell lyrics

What to do

What to say

What to wear on a sunny day

Who to phone

Who to fight

Who to dance with on a Sunday night

Reaching the very edge, you know

Reaching the very edge

Going to the other side this time

Reaching the very edge

CHORUS

You`re still breathing but you don`t know why

Life`s a bit and sometimes you die

You`re still breathing but you just can`t tell

Don`t hold your breath but the pretty things are going to hell

I am a drug

I am a dragon

I am the best jazz you`ve ever seen

I am a dragon

I am the sky

I am the blood at the corner of your eye

I found the secrets, I found gold

I find you out before you grow old

I find you out before you grow old

What is eternal?

What is damned?

What is clay and what is sand?

Who to dis?

Who to truss?

Who to listen to?

Who to suss?

I`m reaching the very edge, you know

I`m reaching the very edge

I`m going to the other side this time

I`m reaching the very edge

CHORUS

I am a dragon

I am a drug

I am the best jazz you`ve ever heard

I am a dragon

I am the sky

I am the blood at the corner of your eye

I found the secrets, I found gold

I find you out before you grow old

I find you out before you grow old

REPEAT (4x)

The pretty things are going to hell

They wore it out but they wore it well

You`re still breathing but you don`t know why

You`re still breathing but you just can`t tell

Don`t hold your breath but the pretty things are going to hell
