panic in detroit (live 1974) - david bowie lyrics
[verse 1]
he looked a lot like che guevara
drove a diesel van
kept his gun in quiet seclusion
such a humble man
only survivor of the national people’s gang
[chorus]
panic in detroit
i asked for an autograph
he wanted to stay home
wish someone would phone
panic in detroit
panic in detroit
[verse 2]
he laughed at accidental sirens
that broke the evening gloom
and all the police had repercussions
they followed none too soon
a trickle of strangers all that wеre left alive
[chorus]
panic in dеtroit
asked for an autograph
wanted to stay home
wish someone would phone
panic in detroit
[bridge]
putting on some clothes, i made my way to school
found my teacher crouching in his overalls
screamed and ran to smash my favorite slot machine
i jumped the cars that slept at traffic lights
they were
[instrumental break]
[verse 3]
having scored a trillion dollars
made the run back home
found him slumped across the table
me and the gun alone
ran to the window, looked for a plane or two
[chorus]
panic in detroit
he’d left me an autograph
“let me collect dust.”
wish someone would phone
panic in detroit
it was panic in detroit
panic in detroit
