Farewell Speech/Rock 'n' Roll Suicide (Live at Hammersmith Odeon, 3rd July, 1973)

作词 : David Bowie

作曲 : David Bowie/Phoenix

Everybody,this has been one of the greatest tours of our lives

First I'd like to thank the band

I'd like to thank our role crew

I'd like to thank our live scene people

Above the shows on this tour,this particular show will remain as the longest

Because not only it is the last show of this tour

but it is the last show that I would ever do

Thank you.

Time takes a cigeratte,puts it in your mouth

You put your finger,then another finger,then your cigeratte

The wall-to-wall's calling,it lingers,then you forget

Oh no you're a rock'n'roll suicide

You're too old to lose it,too young to choose it

And the clock waits so patiently on your song

You walk past the cafe but you don't eat when you've lived too long

Oh no you're a rock'n'roll suicide

Chev brakes are snarling as you stumble across the road

But day breaks instead so you hurry home

Don't let the sun blast your shadow,don't let the milk floats ride your mind

You are so natural-religiously unkind

Oh no love!You're not alone

You're watching yourself but you're too unfair

You got your head all tangled up but if I could only make you care

Oh no love!You're not alone

No matter what or who you've been

No matter when or where you've seen

All the knives seem to lacerate your brain

I've had my share so I'll help you with the pain

You're not alone just turn on with me

You're not alone just turn on with me

You're not alone gimme your hands

Cause you're wonderful

I say gimme your hands

Cause you're wonderful

Gimme your hands cause you are wonderful

Gimme your hands cause you are wonderful

Gimme your hands

Thank you very much

Bye bye we love you
