The Man Who Sold the World - Live Songtext
We passed upon the stairs
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn′t there
He said I was his friend
Which came as a surprise
I spoke into his eyes
"I thought you died alone
A long, long time ago"
Oh no, not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years, I roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
We walked a million hills
I must have died alone
A long, long time ago
Who knows? Not me
I never lost control
You′re face to face
With the man who sold the world
Who knows? Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
Thanks, that was a David Bowie song
What's next?
I didn′t screw it up, did I? (No)
Okay, but here′s another one I could screw up (what is it?)
Am I gonna do this by myself?
Yeah, you should do it by yourself (do it by yourself)
Okay, well, I think I'll try in a different key, I′ll try in a normal key (yeah)
If it sounds bad, these people are just gonna have to wait
Do you have a smoke?
Okay
We spoke of was and when
Although I wasn′t there

Which came as a surprise

Oh no, not me

You're face to face
With the man who sold the world
I laughed and shook his hand
And made my way back home
I searched for form and land
For years and years, I roamed
I gazed a gazeless stare
We walked a million hills
I must have died alone
A long, long time ago
Who knows? Not me
I never lost control
You′re face to face
With the man who sold the world
Who knows? Not me
We never lost control
You're face to face

Okay
