China Girl (Reality Tour rehearsals, fragment) Songtext
von David Bowie

Oh-oh-oh-oh, little China girl
Oh-oh-oh-oh, little China girl

I could escape this feeling with my China girl
I′m a wreck without my little China girl
I hear her heart beating as loud as thunder
I saw the stars crashing

I'm a mess without my little China girl
Wake up in the morning, where′s my little China girl?
I hear her heart's beating loud as thunder
I saw the stars crashing down

I'm feeling tragic like I′m Marlon Brando
When I look at my China girl
I could pretend that nothing really meant too much
When I look at my China girl

I stumble into town
Just like some sacred cow
Visions of swastikas in my head
Plans for everyone
It′s in the white of my eyes


My little China girl
You shouldn't mess with me
I′ll ruin everything you are
You know it
I'll give into your visions
I′ll give you eyes of blue
But I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world

And when I get excited
My little China girl says
"Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth"
She says, "Shh..."
She says, "Shh..."
She says

And when I get excited
My little China girl, she says
"Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth"

And when I get excited
My little China girl, she says
"Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth"

She says, "Shh..."
She says

Little China girl
Little China girl
