Fantastic Voyage Lyrics - David Bowie

1 In the event that this fantastic voyage

2 Should turn to erosion and we never get old

3 Remember it's true, dignity is valuable

4 But our lives are valuable, too.

5 We're learning to live with somebody's depression

6 And I don't want to live with somebody's depression

7 We'll get by, I suppose

8 It's a very modern world, but nobody is perfect

9 It's a moving world, but that's no reason

10 to shoot some of those missiles

11 Think of us as fatherless scum

12 It won't be forgotten

13 'Cause we'll never say anything nice again, will we?

14 And the wrong words make you listen

15 in this criminal world

16 Remember it's true, a loyalty is valuable

17 But our lives are valuable, too.

18 We're learning to live with somebody's depression

19 And I don't want to live with somebody's depression

20 We'll get by, I suppose

21 But any sudden movement, and I've got to write it down

22 They wipe out an entire race and I've got to write it down

23 But I'm still getting educated but I've got to write down

24 And it won't be forgotten

25 'Cause I'll never say anything nice again, how can I?
