Diamond Dogs Lyrics

David Bowie

As they pulled you out of the oxygen tent You asked for the latest party With your silicone hump and your ten inch stump Dressed like a priest you was, Tod Browning's freak you was
Crawling down the alley on your hands and knee I'm sure you're not protected, for it's plain to see The diamond dogs are poachers and they hide behind trees Hunt you to the ground they will, mannequins with kill appeal
(Will they come?) I'll keep a friend serene (Will they come?) Oh baby, come unto me (Will they come?) Well, she's come, been and gone
Come out of the garden, baby You'll catch your death in the fog Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
The Halloween Jack is a real cool cat And he lives on top of Manhattan Chase The elevator's broke, so he slides down a rope Onto the street below, oh Tarzie, go man go
Meet his little hussy with his ghost town approach Her face is sans feature, but she wears a Dali brooch Sweetly reminiscent, something mother used to bake Wrecked up and paralyzed, Diamond Dogs are sableized
(Will they come?) I'll keep a friend serene (Will they come?) Oh baby, come unto me (Will they come?) Well, she's come, been and gone
Come out of the garden, baby You'll catch your death in the fog Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
(Oo-oo-ooh) Call them the Diamond Dogs (Oo-oo-ooh) Call them the Diamond Dogs
In the year of the scavenger, the season of the bitch Sashay on the boardwalk, soiree to the ditch Just another future song, knowin' it'll never kitch (There's gonna be sorrow) Try and wake up tomorrow
(Will they come?) I'll keep a friend serene (Will they come?) Oh baby, come unto me (Will they come?) Well, she's come, been and gone
Come out of the garden, baby You'll catch your death in the fog Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
(Oo-oo-ooh) Call them the Diamond Dogs (Oo-oo-ooh) Call them the Diamond Dogs (Bow-wow, woof woof, bow-wow, wow) Call them the Diamond Dogs
Dogs Call them the Diamond Dogs Call them, call them Call them the Diamond Dogs Call them, call them, ooo Call them the Diamond Dogs
{Keep cool Diamond Dogs rule, okay}
Beware of the Diamond Dogs Beware of the Diamond Dogs Beware of the Diamond Dogs ...
