David Bowie - After All Lyrics
Please trip them gently, they dont like to fall(oh by jingo)Theres no room for anger, were all very small(oh by jingo)Were painting our faces and dressing in thoughts from the skies, from paradiseBut they think that were holding a secretive ballWont someone invite themTheyre just taller children, (oooo), thats all, after allMan is an obstacle, sad as the clown(oh by jingo)So hold on to nothing, and he wont let you down(oh by jingo)Some people are marching together and some on their ownQuite aloneOthers are running, the smaller ones crawlBut some sit in silence, theyre just older children(oooo), thats all, after allI sing with impertinence, shading impermanent chords,With my wordsIve borrowed your time and Im sorry I calledBut the thought just occurred that were nobodys children at all, (oooo), after allLive to your rebirth and do what you will(oh by jingo)Forget all Ive said, please bear me no ill(oh by jingo)After all, after all
