Ricochet Lyrics - Let's Dance - David Bowie

Like weeds on a rockface waiting for the scythe 

Ricochet - ricochet 

The world is on a corner waiting for jobs 

Ricochet - ricochet 

Turn the holy pictures so they face the wall 

And who can bear to be forgotten 

And who can bear to be forgotten 

March of flowers, march of dimes 

These are the prisons, these are the crimes 

Men wait for news while thousands are still asleep 

Dreaming of tramlines factories pieces of machinery 

Mine shafts things like that 

March of flowers, march of dimes 

These are the prisons, these are the crimes 

Sound of thunder, sound of gold 

Sound of the devil breaking parole 

Ricochet - it's not the end of the world

Sound of thunder, sound of gold 

Sound of the devil breaking parole 

Ricochet - ricochet 

These are the prisons these are the crimes 

Teaching life in a violent new way 

Ricochet - ricochet 

Turn the holy pictures so they face the wall 

And who can bear to be forgotten 

And who can bear to be forgotten 

March of flowers, march of dimes 

These are the prisons, these are the crimes 

Early, before the sun, they struggle off to the gates 

In their secret fearful places they see their lives 

Unravelling before them 

March of flowers - march of dimes 

These are the prisons, these are the crimes 

Sound of thunder, sound of gold 

Sound of the devil breaking parole 

Ricochet it's not the end of the world

That's when they get home, damp eyed and weary 

They smile and crush their children to their heaving chests 

Making unfulfillable promises 

For who can bear to be forgotten
