All The Young Dudes

(D. Bowie)

Well Billy rapped all night about his suicide
Said he could kick it in the head when he was 25
Speed jive, don't wanna stay alive when your 25
And Wendy's stealing clothes from Marks And Sparks
And Freddie's got spots from ripping of the stars from his face
Funky little boatrace

The television man is crazy
Saying we're juvenile delequent wrecks
Oh man - I need TV? When I got T-Rex
Oh brother you guessed I'm a dude now

All the young dudes - carry the news
Boogaloo dudes - carry the news

Well Billy's looking sweet cuz he dresses like a queen
But he can kick like a mule - it's a real mean team
But we can love, oh yes, we can love
And my father's back at home with his Beatles and his Stones
He never got it off with that revolution stuff
What a drag
Too many snags
Well I drunk a lot of wine and I'm feeling fine
I'm gonna raise some cat to bed
Oh man - is that concrete all around or is it in my head
Brother, I'm a dude now...

All the young dudes - carry the news
Boogaloo dudes - carry the news
