Oh You Pretty Things Lyrics - Hunky Dory - David Bowie

Wake up you sleepy head 

Put on some clothes, shake up your bed 

Put another log on the fire for me 

I've made some breakfast and coffee 

I look out my window what do I see 

A crack in the sky and a hand reaching down to me 

All the nightmares came today 

And it looks as though they're here to stay 

What are we coming to 

No room for me, no fun for you 

I think about a world to come 

Where the books were found by the Golden ones 

Written in pain, written in awe 

By a puzzled man who questioned 

What we work here for 

All the strangers came today

Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things) 

Don't you know you're driving your 

Mamas and Papas insane 

Oh You Pretty Things (Oh You Pretty Things) 

Don't you know you're driving your 

Mamas and Papas insane 

Let me say it again 

You gotta make way for the Homo Superior 

Look out at your children 

See their faces in golden rays 

Don't kid yourself they belong to you 

They're the start of a coming race 

The earth is a bitch 

We've finished our news 

Homo Sapiens have outgrown their use 

All the strangers came today 

And it looks as though they're here to stay

Let me make it plain 

You gotta make way for the Homo Superior
