Oh! You Pretty Things Lyrics - David Bowie

1 Wake up you sleepy head

2 Put on some clothes, shake up your bed

3 Put another log on the fire for me

4 I've made some breakfast and coffee

5 I look out my window what do I see

6 A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me

7 All the nightmares came today

8 And it looks as though they're here to stay

9 What are we coming to

10 No room for me, no fun for you

11 I think about a world to come

12 Where the books were found by the Golden ones

13 Written in pain, written in awe

14 By a puzzled man who questioned

15 What we work here for

16 All the strangers came today

17 And it looks as though they're here to stay

18 Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things)

19 Don't you know you're driving your

20 Mamas and Papas insane

21 Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things)

22 Don't you know you're driving your

23 Mamas and Papas insane

24 Let me make it plain

25 You gotta make way for the Homo Superior

26 Look out at your children

27 See their faces in golden rays

28 Don't kid yourself they belong to you

29 They're the start of a coming race

30 The earth is a bitch

31 We've finished our news

32 Homo Sapiens have outgrown their use

33 All the strangers came today

34 And it looks as though they're here to stay

35 Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things)

36 Don't you know you're driving your

37 Mamas and Papas insane

38 Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things)

39 Don't you know you're driving your

40 Mamas and Papas insane

41 Let me make it plain

42 You gotta make way for the Homo Superior
