New Killer Star (Sessions@aol, 23/09/03) Songtext
von David Bowie

See the great white scar
Over Battery Park
Then a flare glides over
But I won′t look at that scar

Oh, my nuclear baby (we'll discover a star)
Oh, my idiot trance
All my idiot questions (like the stars in your eyes)
Let′s face the music and dance

Don't ever say I'm ready, I′m ready, I′m ready
I never said I'm better, I′m better, I'm better
Don′t ever say I'm ready, I′m ready, I'm ready
I never said I'm better, I′m better, I′m better, I'm better than you

All the corners of the buildings
Who but we remember these?
The sidewalks and trees
I′m thinking now


I got a better way, I discovered a star
I got a better way, ready, set, go
I got a better way, a new killer star
I got a better way, ready, set, go

I got a better way, the stars in your eyes
I got a better way, ready, set, go
I got a better way, I discovered a star
I got a better way, ready, set, go

All my life in a comic
The way they did the Bible
All the bubbles and actions
Little details in color

First a horseback bomber (we'll discover a star)
Then a small thin chance
Like seeing Jesus on Dateline (like the stars in your eyes)
Let′s face the music and dance

Don't ever say I′m ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I never said I′m better, I′m better, I'm better
Don′t ever say I'm ready, I′m ready, I'm ready
I never said I′m better, I'm better, I'm better, I′m better than you


All the corners of the buildings
Who but we remember these?
The sidewalks and trees
I′m thinking now

I got a better way, I discovered a star
I got a better way, ready, set, go
I got a better way, a new killer star
I got a better way, ready, set, go

I got a better way, the stars in your eyes
I got a better way, ready, set, go
I got a better way, I discovered a star
I got a better way, ready, set, go

I got a better way
I got a better way, ready, set, go
I got a better way
I got a better way, ready, set, go
