Lyrics
I woke up on Monday, and what the fuck I didn't think it was true and drank downmy cup I sat frozen for a while. I was lost and I was dazed Then I got up and shuffled out the door and slipped away Well I went to work and tried to pass the time I read every word every heart breaking line Didn't say anything didn't have nothing to say And the rain kept on falling it was a fucked up day I went to buy some groceries, I barely made a meal I remembered when he was here that kind of thing reminded him hes real Helped him clean up and get out of his head I want to get out of mine, because Savid Bowie's dead Down at number 17 I sat in my room Picked up my guitar and recorded some sad tune It wasnt much of nothing, and my throat was clogged with tears I watched it all unfold and I hissed and disappeared On Friday I went down and stood in that same room Where he sang those great songs on some long lost afternoon It was kinda tacky now listening to the cello rendition And the paparrazzi shutters clicking trying to make the next edition There were are lot of older people there, they knew their time was thin Signing their names with hands shaking shaking shaking I looked out the same window, a new wall was on the other side I had to walk away because David Bowie died On the wedding day I crept out and tried to get some sleep Surrounded by policemen and man that made me weep They were laughing around, only thinking about themselves When there's paperwork a piling why not change it, what the hell Oh it won't matter how much can one change hurt They're a bunch of braindead leavers and they ripped off my friends shirt I told the father of the groom, hey tomorrow why not stay at home Don't try and fuck me other just because your wife left you alone I can't stay away and I have to come back to people like you You got nothing to gain, and I got everything to lose I got the David Bowie is dead and everything's going to shit blues Every single time the people went to vote We got a worst result than any dystopian author wrote Small fingers on the button and a polished boot standing on your neck Every day its something new and we havent heard the last of it yet Did the world go wrong? because it seems it might have Can you hear the lies parroted by the sucking wrong so called right Another year goes by and the light becomes a sliver I got no plan, no wherefore or whither It's a lot of wishful thinking, but at least I still got thought I added up the numbers and I ended up at naught And then the drummer disappears But I still can hear him pounding pounding pounding pounding Pounding in my ears Oh it's everywhere The world has gone to shit cos David Bowie isnt here Oh Monday morning What the fuck I read the fucking news Monday morning I got the David Bowie is dead and everything's going to shit blues
