Lyrics David Bowie – Day In Day Out
Text:
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out
Day-In Oo Oo
Day-Out Oo Oo Oo
She was born in a handbag
Love left
on a doorstep
What she lacks is a backup
Nothing seems to make a dent
Gonna find her some money honey
Try to pay her rent
That’s the kind of protection everyone is shouting about
CHORUS
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out
Day-In Oo Oo
Day-Out Oo Oo Oo
First thing she learns is
she’s a citizen
Some things they turn out right
When you’re under the USA
Something rings a bell
and it’s all over
She’s going out her way
Stealing for that one good rush
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out
She could use a little money
She’s hangin’ on his arms
like a cheap suit
She’s on the other side
Oh come on little baby
Late night, big town,
police, shake down
Oo Oo
Oo Oo
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out
Oo Oo
Oo Oo
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out
She’s got a ticket to nowhere
She’s gonna take a train ride
Nobody knows her, or knows her name
She’s in the pocket of a home boy
Oo she’s gonna take her a shotgun Pow
Spin the grail spin the drug
She’s gonna make them well aware
She’s an angry gal
Day-In Day-Out
Stay-In Fade-Out
Suddenly there’s angels everywhere
Angels in a ton of sound
And they shootin’ her down
Shootin her with video-drugs-bullets and promises
