Ah oooh |
|
He looked a lot like che guevara, drove a diesel van |
|
Kept his gun in quiet seclusion, such a humble man |
|
The only survivor of the national people's gang |
|
Panic in detroit, i asked for an autograph |
|
He wanted to stay home, i wish someone would phone |
|
Panic in detroit (oh oh oh aahh, oh oh oh aahh) |
|
David Bowie |
|
He laughed at accidental sirens that broke the evening gloom |
|
The police had warned of repercussions |
|
They followed none too soon |
|
A trickle of strangers were all that were left alive |
|
Panic in detroit, i asked for an autograph |
|
He wanted to stay home, i wish someone would phone |
|
Panic in detroit (oh oh oh aahh, ah ah ah aahh) |
|
Putting on some clothes i made my way to school |
|
And i found my teacher crouching in his overalls |
|
I screamed and ran to smash my favourite slot machine (oh oh oh) |
|
And jumped the silent cars that slept at traffic lights |
|
Having scored a trillion dollars, made a run back home |
|
Found him slumped across the table. a gun and me alone |
|
I ran to the window. looked for a plane or two |
|
Panic in detroit. he'd left me an autograph |
|
"let me collect dust." i wish someone would phone |
|
Panic in detroit |
|
Panic in detroit |
|
Panic in detroit |
|
Aoo |
