David Bowie--> ![]() (Mouseover for the latest David Bowie Videos and News) Growin' Up ==========
Well I stood stonelike at midnight Suspended in my masquerade I combed my hair till it was just right And commanded the night brigade I was open to pain and crossed by the rain And I walked on a crooked crutch I strolled all alone through a fallout zone Came out with my soul untouched
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd But when they said `Sit down' I stood up Ooh-ooh growin' up
The flag of piracy flew from my mast My sails were set wing to wing I had a jukebox graduate for first mate She couldn't sail but she sure could sing I pushed the B-52 and bombed `em with the blues With my gear set stubborn on standing I broke all the rules, strafed my old high school Never once gave thought to landing, no
I hid in the clouded wrath of the crowd But when they said `Come down' I threw up Ooh-ooh growin' up
I took month-long vacations in the stratosphere And you know it's really hard to hold your breath And I swear I lost everything I ever loved or feared I was the cosmic kid in full costume dress Well my feet finally took root in the earth But I got me a nice little place in the stars And I swear I found the key to the universe In the engine of an old parked car
I hid in the mother breast of the crowd But when they said `Move down' I moved up Ooh-ooh, doncha know that I'm growin' up Ooh-ooh, I can't help it that I'm growin' up
