David Bowie — The Supermen Sounds Of The 70s: Andy Ferris

When all the world was very young And mountain magic heavy hung The supermen would walk in file Guardians of a loveless isle And icy golden super fear Their endless tragic lives had stretched beyond The lavish gift divinity Existing perverse serenity Strange games they would play then No death for the perfect men Life rolls into one for them So softly a super god cries! Where all were minds in uni-thought Powers weird by mystics taught No obstacle no power too great Colossal strength to grasp a fate Where sad-eyed mermen tossed in slumbers Nightmare dreams no mortal mind could hold A man would tear his brother's flesh A chance to die, to turn to mold Far out in the red-sky Far out from the sad eyes Strange, mad celebration So softly a supergod cries! [Guitar solo] Far out in the red-sky Far out from the sad eye Strange, mad celebration So softly a supergod dies!
