THE MOTEL (1995) - DAVID BOWIE ============================== [INTRO] [VERSE I] For we’re living In a safety zone Don’t be holding back from me We’re living from hour to hour down here And we’ll take it when we can [VERSE II] It’s a kind of living which recognises The death of the odourless man When nothing is vanity nothing’s too slow It’s not Eden but it’s no sham [CHORUS] There is no hell There is no shame There is no hell Like an old hell There is no hell And it’s lights up boys Lights up boys [VERSE III] Explosion falls upon deaf ears While we’re swimming in a sea of sham Living in the shadow of vanity A complex fashion for a simple man [CHORUS] And there is no hell And there is no shame And there is no hell Like an old hell There is no hell [VERSE IV] And the silence flies On its brief flight A razor sharp crap shoot affair And we light up our lives [OUTRO] And there’s no more of me exploding you Re-exposing you Like everybody do Re-exploding you I don’t know what to use Make somebody move Me exploding Me exploding you
