Candidate Lyrics - David Bowie

1 I'll make you a deal like any other candidate.

2 We'll pretend were walking home cause your future's at stake

3 My set is amazing, it even smells like the street

4 There is a bar at the end where I could meet you and your friend.

5 Someone scrawled on the wall "I smell the blood of les tricoteuses"

6 Who wrote up scandals in other bars

7 I am having so much fun with the poisonous people

8 Spreading rumors and lies and stories they made up

9 Some make you sing and some make you scream

10 One makes you wish that you never been seen

11 But there's a shop on the corner selling papier mache

12 Making bullet-proof faces Charles Manson, Cassius Clay

13 If you want it, boys get it here thing.

14 So you scream out of line

15 "I want you! I need you! Anyone out there? Anytime?

16 Tres butch little numberwang "Hey girlie, I want you

17 When it's good it's really good and when it's bad I go to pieces"

18 If you want it, boys, get it here, thing

19 Well, on the street where you live I could not hold up my head

20 For I put all I have in another bed

21 On another floor, in the back of a car

22 In the cellar of a church with the door ajar.

23 Well, I guess we must be looking for a different kind

24 But we can't stop trying til we break up our minds

25 'Til the sun drips blood on the seedy young knights

26 Who press you on the ground while shaking in fright

27 I guess we could cruise down one more time

28 With you by my side, it should be fine

29 We'll buy some drugs and watch a band

30 Then jump in the river holding hands
