David Bowie - Time Will Crawl lyrics

I've never sailed on a sea

I would not challenge a giant

I could not take on the church

Time will crawl

Till the 21st century lose

I know a government man

He was as blind as the moon

He saw the sun in the night

He took a top-gun pilot

He made him fly thru a hole

Till he grew real old

And he never came down

He just flew till he burst

Time will crawl till our mouths run dry

Time will crawl till our feet grow small

Time will crawl till our tails fall off

Time will crawl till the 21st century lose

I saw a black black stream

Full of white eyed fish

And a drowning man

With no eyes at all

I felt a warm warm breeze

That melted metal and steel

I got a bad migraine

That lasted three long years

And the pills that I took

Made my fingers disappear

Time will crawl, time will crawl

Time will crawl

Till the 21st century lose

You were a talented child

You came to live in our town

We never bothered to scream

When your mask came off

We only smelt the gas

As we lay down to sleep

Time will crawl and our heads bowed down

Time will crawl and our eyes fall out

Time will crawl and the streets run red

Time will crawl till the 21st century lose

Time will crawl and our mouths run dry

Time will crawl and our feet grow small

Time will crawl and our tails fall off

Time will crawl till the 21st century lose

Time will crawl and our heads bowed down

Time will crawl and our eyes fall out

Time will crawl and the streets run red

Time will crawl till the 21st century lose

For the crazy child

We'll give every life

For the crackpot notion
