Altenative Candidate - David Bowie Diamond Dogs [Intro] 4x [Verse 1] Inside every teenage girl there’s a fountain Inside every young pair of pants there’s a mountain Inside every mother’s eyes is Tommy Tinkrem’s bed Inside every candidate waits a grateful dead [Chorus 1] I make it a thing when I’m on my own to relieve myself I make it a thing when I gazelle on stage to believe in myself I make it a thing to glance in window panes and look pleased with myself Yeah and pretend I’m walking home 2x [Verse 2] I took it so bad I sat in the correction room Took me a fag and a kick in the moon Well I ain’t gonna suck no radar wing because inside this tin is tin Would you like to techno-plate ’cause I’m your candidate oh yeah [Chorus 2] It’s a matter of life And the way you walk you’ve got a BrylCream queen It’s a matter of tact In the things you talk that keeps his passport clean matter of fact That cock ain’t cock on twelve inch screen So I’ll pretend I’m walking home [Interlude] 4x [Verse 3] You don’t have to scream a lot to keep an age in tune You don’t have to scream a lot to predict monsoons You don’t have to paint my contact black Now I’ve hustled a pair of jeans Do I have to give your money back when I’m the Fuhrerling? [Chorus 3] I’ll make you a deal I’ll say I came from Earth and my tongue is taped I’ll make you a deal You can get your kicks on the candidate I’ll make you a deal For your future’s sake I’m the candidate Lets pretend we’re walking home [Outro] Uh-huh uhhh I’m the candidate Make way for the candidate Vote now for the candidate 2x
