From
Tin Machine II (by Tin Machine) (1991) by
David Bowie
Shopping for Girls (Bowie, Gabrels) - 3:44
Between the dead ring ash of extreme
defense
The lonely groups of company boys
Snapping pictures of scrawny limbs and
toothy grins
These are children riding naked on their
tourist pals
While the hollows that pass for eyes swell
from withdrawal
And he lies on a mattress in a rat infested
room
Talking 'bout his family and the cold back
home
CHORUS
Between the dull cold eyes and the mind
unstable
No one over here reads the papers pal
Between the dull cold eyes and the mind
unstable
He's a clean trick and he's shopping for
girls
A small black someone jumps over the
crazy white guard
Cranking up the volume of a Michael
Jackson song
CHORUS
