Scream Like a Baby Lyrics - David Bowie

1 Well I wouldn't buy no merchandise

2 And I wouldn't go to war

3 And I mixed with other colours

4 But the nurse doesn't care

5 And I hide under blankets

6 Or did I run away

7 I really can't remember

8 Last time I saw the light of day

9 But I remember Sam 'cause he was like me

10 Screaming like a baby

11 Sam was a gun

12 And I never knew his last name

13 And we never had no fun

14 Well they came down hard on the faggots

15 And they came down hard on the street

16 They came down harder on Sam

17 And they all knew he was beat

18 He was thrown into the wagon

19 Blindfolded, chains, and they stomped on us

20 And took away our clothes and things

21 And pumped us full of strange drugs

22 And oh I saw Sam falling

23 Spitting in their eyes

24 But now I lay me down to sleep

25 And now I close my eyes

26 Now I'm learning to be a part of soc-society

27 Soc socie s

28 Scream like a baby

29 Sam was a gun

30 And I never knew his last name

31 And we never had no fun

32 No athletic program, no discipline, no book

33 He just sat in the backseat swearing he'd seek revenge

34 But he jumped into the furnace

35 Singing old songs we loved

36 Scream like a baby

37 Sam was a gun

38 And I never knew his last name

39 And we never had no fun

40 Scream like a baby

41 Sam was a gun

42 And I never knew his last name

43 And we never had no fun
