Music and Lyrics by Bowie
Psychodelicate girl — come out to play
Little metal faced boy — don’t stay away
He’s so war torn and resigned — she can’t talk anymore
What are they trying to prove — what are they hoping to find
It’s love back to front and no sides — like I say
These pieces are broken — like I say
These pieces are broken
Hope I’m wrong but I know
Because you’re young
You’ll meet a stranger some night
Because you’re young
What could be nicer for you
And it makes me sad
So I’ll dance my life away
A million dreams
A million scars
He punishes hard — was loving her such a crime
She took back everything she said
Left him nearly out of his mind
They’re people I know — people I love
They seem so unhappy — dead or alive
It’s love back to front and no sides — like I say
These pieces are broken — like I say
These pieces are broken
Hope I’m wrong but I know
Because you’re young
You’ll meet a stranger some night
Because you’re young
What could be nicer for you
And it makes me sad
So I’ll dance my life away
A million dreams
A million scars
