[David Bowie - Time Will Crawl lyrics]
Time will crawl
I've never sailed on a sea
I would not challenge a giant
I could not take on the church
'Til the twenty-first century lose
I know a government man
He was as blind as the moon, and he
He saw the sun in the night
He took a top-gun pilot and he
He made him fly through a hole
'Til he grew real old, and he
And he never came down
He just flew till he burst
Time will crawl 'Til our mouths run dry
Time will crawl 'Til our feet grow small
Time will crawl 'Til our tails fall off
Time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first 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
'Til the twenty-first century lose (Go)
Time will crawl time will crawl
You were a talented child
You came to live in our town
We never bothered to scream
When your mask went 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
'Til the twenty-first century lose
And our mouths run dry time will crawl
And our feet grow small time will crawl
And our tails fall off time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first century lose
And our heads bowed down time will crawl
And our eyes fall out time will crawl
And the streets run red time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first century lose
Time will crawl for the crazy child
Time will crawl we'll give every life
'Til the twenty-first century lose
For the crackpot notion
I've never sailed on a sea
I would not challenge a giant
I could not take on the church
'Til the twenty-first century lose
I know a government man
He was as blind as the moon, and he
He saw the sun in the night
He took a top-gun pilot and he
He made him fly through a hole
'Til he grew real old, and he
And he never came down
He just flew till he burst
Time will crawl 'Til our mouths run dry
Time will crawl 'Til our feet grow small
Time will crawl 'Til our tails fall off
Time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first 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
'Til the twenty-first century lose (Go)
Time will crawl time will crawl
You were a talented child
You came to live in our town
We never bothered to scream
When your mask went 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
'Til the twenty-first century lose
And our mouths run dry time will crawl
And our feet grow small time will crawl
And our tails fall off time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first century lose
And our heads bowed down time will crawl
And our eyes fall out time will crawl
And the streets run red time will crawl
'Til the twenty-first century lose
Time will crawl for the crazy child
Time will crawl we'll give every life
'Til the twenty-first century lose
For the crackpot notion
