Lyrics David Bowie

David Bowie

Battle for Britain

My my, but time do fly

When it’s in another pair of hands

And a loser I will be

For I’ve never been a winner

In my life I used the sucker pills

And pity for the self

Though it’s the animal in me

But I’d rather be a beggar man

On the shelf

Don’t be so forlorn

It’s just the payoff

It’s the rain before the storm

On a better day I’ll take you by the hand

And lead you thru’ the doors

Don’t you let my letter

Get you down

My my, but time do fly

When it’s in another pair of pants

And illusion I will be

For I’ve never been a sinner

La-de-dah
