Reality

- Lyrics and music by David Bowie Tragic youth was looking young and sexy The tragic youth was wearing tattered black jeans Bearing arms and flooring all her mischief The tragic youth was growing down on me And I swear Hoo, hoo Yes, I swear I feel the wall of silence separate us I hear the morning junk, her wretched highs I spin from Planet X to Planet Alpha Struggling for reality Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha Woo, hoo Ha, ha, ha, ha Woo hoo Hey, now my sight is failing in this twilight Duh duh duh duh duh-duh duh-duh-duh Now my death is more than just a sad song Da duh duh duh duh-duh duh-duh-duh And I swear Hoo, hoo Yes, I swear Hoo, hoo I still don't remember how this happened I still don't get the 'wherefores' and the 'whys' I look for scent and I get next to nothing Hey, boy, welcome to reality Ha, ha, ha, ha Woo, hoo I've been right, but I've been wrong Now I'm back where I started from Never looked over reality's shoulder Ha, ha, ha, ha Huh, ha, ha, ha Woo, hoo Huh, ha, ha Woo, hoo Wooh
