Slow Burn
David Bowie
[Verse 1]
Here shall we live in this terrible town
Where the price for our minds
Shall squeeze them tight like a fist
And the walls shall have eyes
And the doors shall have ears
But we'll dance in their dark
And they'll play with our lives

[Chorus]
Like a Slow Burn
Leading us on and on and on
Like a Slow Burn
Turning us round and round and round
Hark who are we
So small in times such as these

[Refrain]
Slow Burn
Slow Burn
[Verse 2]
Oh, these are the days
These are the strangest of all
These are the nights
These are the darkest to fall
But who knows?
Echoes in tenement halls
Who knows?
Though the years spare them all

[Chorus]
Like a Slow Burn
Leading us on and on and on
Like a Slow Burn
Twirling us round and round
And upside down
There's fear overhead
There's fear overground

[Refrain]
Slow Burn
Slow Burn

[Chorus]
Like a Slow Burn
Leading us on and on and on
Like a Slow Burn
Turning us round and round and round
And here are we
At the center of it all
[Refrain]
Slow Burn
Slow Burn
Slow Burn
