Bombers

David Bowie

Transposer:

BOMBERS- David Bowie CHORUS 1: All clear wailed the si-rens Sunshine on the wasteland Old man sitting in the white sand Think we’re in for a big surprise right between the eyes Seemed a good idea to drop a bomb on the wasteland here Only one man could be seen and he was old and so serene Captain sat in his deckchair and the red light flashed beware Pilot felt quite big time as the bomb sailed through the air Well they danced & sang when the bang went bang but the lights bulked out when the smoke began to clear It was positively queer             CHORUS 2 ’Die’ said the General ’Cobblers’ said the man So the Pentagon sent a cable and the Queen a telegram A-bombs H-bombs even very small ones Ripped apart that sand Till the stench was just revolting and the sky a creamish tan But the soldier said "Sir there’s a crack in the world" And the blippers went spark and the bits went far and wide how the universe sighed             CHORUS 3: All clear wailed the si-rens Sunshine on the wasteland Old man sitting in the white sand Think were in for a big surprise right between the eyes CHORUS 4: All clear wailed the si-rens Sunshine on the wasteland Old man sitting in the white sand Think were in for a big surprise right between the eyes When the smoke had blown away there was nothing left to view Except a man dear lord who looked like you floating high up in the sky! ----------------------------------------- CHORUS:                    E-0-3-1-1------|         B-1-0-3-1------|         G-0-0-3-2------|         D-2-0-3-3------|         A-3-2-1-3------|         E---3---1-1012-| ----------------------------------------- CHORDS:  EADGBE          ------ A        X02220 G        320033 Dm       XX0231 Eb       XX5343 G/F      120033 C        332010 D        XX0232 Bb       X13331 G/E      020033 E        022100 F        133211 E7       020100 G/D      XX0033

La chanson évoque une scène apocalyptique où des bombardements ravagent un paysage désolé. On y décrit un vieux homme, immobile sur le sable, tandis que des sirènes hurlent en signalant le danger. Dans un mélange de sérénité et de chaos, le texte illustre le pouvoir destructeur de la guerre et ses conséquences dévastatrices. Même en pleine destruction, un sentiment d'étrangeté persiste, comme si le monde devenait méconnaissable. Le contexte semble pointer vers les horreurs des conflits modernes et les dilemmes moraux qui en résultent, soulignant à quel point la guerre transforme la réalité et les vies humaines. Dans ce tableau, la figure de l'homme qui ressemble à un être divin flotte dans le ciel, suggérant une réflexion sur la spiritualité face à la violence et à la destruction.
