Lyrics David Bowie

David Bowie

Goodbye Mr. Ed

The ghost of Manhattoes

Shrieking as they fall from AT&T

Someone sees it all

Goodbye Mr. Ed, Andy's skull enshrined

In a shopping mall near Queens

Someone sees it all

Icarus takes his pratfall

Bruegel on his head

Goodbye Mr. Ed

Four and twenty black kids

Some of them are blind

Someone sees it all

Tolerance of violence

By the fellows with no heads

Goodbye Mr. Ed

Some things are so big

They make no sense

Histories so small

People are so dense

Someone sees it all

Goodbye Mr. Ed

Some things are so big

They make no sense

Histories so small

People are so dense

Someone sees it all

Goodbye Mr. Ed

Never mind the Pistols

They laid the Golem eggs

Others came to hatch them

Outside the pale

Someone sees it all

Goodbye Mr. Ed
