Janine Lyrics - David Bowie

1 Oh my love, Janine

2 I'm helpless for your smile

3 Like a Polish wanderer

4 I travel ever onwards to your land

5 And were it not just for the jewels, I'd close your hand

6 Your strange demand

7 To 'collocate' my mind

8 Scares me into gloom

9 You're too intense

10 I'll have to keep you in your place

11 I've no defence

12 I've got to keep my veil on my face

13 Janine, Janine, you'd like to know me well

14 But I've got things inside my head

15 That even I can't face

16 Janine, Janine, you'd like to crush the walls

17 But if you take an axe to me

18 You'll kill another man

19 Not me at all

20 You're fey, Janine

21 A trouper to the last

22 But if I catch you standing on my toes

23 I'll have a right to shout you down

24 For you're a lazy stream

25 In which my thoughts would drown

26 So stay, Janine

27 And we can glide along

28 I've caught your wings for laughs

29 I'm not obliged to read you statements of the year

30 So take your glasses off

31 And don't act so sincere

32 Janine, Janine, you'd like to know me well

33 But I've got things inside my head

34 That even I can't face

35 Janine, Janine, you'd like to crush the walls

36 But if you take an axe to me

37 You'll kill another man

38 Not me at all
