Sweet Thing/candidate/sweet Thing Lyrics - Iselect - David Bowie

It's safe in the city to love in a doorway 

Wrangle some screams from the dawn 

And isn't it me, putting pain in a stranger? 

Like a portrait in flesh, trails on a leash 

Will you see that I'm scared and I'm lonely? 

So I'll break up my room, and yawn and I'll run to the center of things 

Where the knowing one says: 

 

"Boys, boys, it's a sweet thing 

Boys, boys, it's a sweet thing, sweet thing 

If you want it, boys, get it here, thing 

'Cause hope, boys, is a cheap thing, cheap thing" 

 

I'm glad that you're older than me 

Makes me feel important and free 

Does that make you smile, isn't that me? 

I'm in your way, and I'll steal every moment 

If this trade is a course, than I'll bless you 

And turn to crossroads and hamburgers

"Boys, boys, it's a sweet thing 

Boys, boys, it's a sweet thing, sweet thing 

If you want it, boys, get it here, thing 

'Cause hope, boys, is a cheap thing, cheap thing" 

 

I'll make you a deal, like any other candidate 

We'll pretend, we're walking home 'cause your future's at stake 

My set is amazing, it even smells like a street 

There's a bar at the end where I can meet you and your friend 

Someone scrawled on the wall "I smell the blood of les tricoteuses" 

Who wrote up scandals in other bars 

 

I'm having so much fun with the poisonous people 

Spreading rumors and lies and stories they made up 

Some make you sing and some make you scream 

One makes you wish thay you'd never been seen 

But there's a shop on the corner that's selling papier mache 

Making bullet-proof faces: Charlie Manson, Cassius Clay 

"If you want it, boys, get it here, thing"

So you scream out of line: 

"I want you! I need you! Anyone out there? Any time? " 

Tres butch little number whines "Hey dirty, I want you 

When it's good, it's really good, and when it's bad I go to pieces" 

If you want it, boys, get it here, thing 

 

Well, on the street where you live I could not hold up my head 

For I put all I have in another bed 

On another floor, in the back of a car 

In the cellar of a church with the door ajar 

Well, I guess we must be looking for a different kind 

But we can't stop trying 'til we break up our minds 

'Til the sun drips blood on the seedy young knights 

Who press you on the ground while shaking in fright 

I guess we could cruise down one more time 

With you by my side, it should be fine 

We'll by some drugs and watch a band 

Then jump in the river holding hands 

 

"If you want it, boys, get it here, thing 

'Cause hope, boys, is a cheap thing, cheap thing" 

 

Is it nice in your snow storm, freezing your brain? 

Do you think that your face looks the same? 

Then let it be, it's all I ever wanted 

It's a street with a deal, and a taste 

It's got claws, it's got me, it's got you...
