♪♫ The return of the Thin White Duke
throwing darts
in lovers' eyes
Here are we one magical moment
Such is the stuff from
where dreams are woven
Bending sound
Dredging the ocean lost in my circle
Here am I
Flashing no colour tall in this room
overlooking the ocean
Here are we
One magical movement
from Kether to Malkuth 1
There are you
You drive like a demon
from station to station

The return of the Thin White Duke
throwing darts
in lovers' eyes [x2]
The return of the Thin White Duke,
making sure white stains

Once there were mountains on mountains
And once there were sunbirds
to soar with
And once I could
never be down
Got to keep searching
and searching
And oh what will I be believing
and who will connect me with love?
Wonder who wonder who
wonder when
Have you sought fortune evasive and shy?
Drink to the men who protect you and I
Drink drink drain your glass
raise your glass high

[CHORUS 1]
It's not the side-effects of the cocaine
I'm thinking that it must be love
It's too late
- to be grateful
It's too late
- to be late again
It's too late
- to be hateful
The european cannon is here

[CHORUS 2]
I must be only one in a million
I won't let the day pass
without her
It's too late
- to be grateful
It's too late
- to be late again
It's too late
- to be hateful
The European cannon is here

[CHORUS 3]
Should I believe that I've been stricken?
Does my face show
some kind of glow?
It's too late
- to be grateful
It's too late
- to be late again
It's too late
- to be hateful
The european cannon is here, yes it's here

It's too late [5 times]
The European cannon is here

[CHORUS 1]

[CHORUS 2]

[CHORUS 3]

It's too late
The European cannon is here ♪♫

BEST 10 MINUTES OF MY LIFE.

[MrMajorTime]

It is so ovbious to anyone who has travelled from the mundane to the next station. There is a more perfect world that coexists with the mere self-conscious matrix. It contains another dimension where reality truly exists. It has no error, has no indifference. It contains all things, with room to move. There are no mistakes there that aren't meant to be. One can rise above doubt because it's all laid out in a beautiful plan, with time enough for love. It's "too late" to fall into worries or fear.

[MrMajorTime]

This was a moment in history. He drove himself to deliver this for our benefit (and his own release). He must have known that he was at the peak of his persona. And he delivered this album at a great cost of personal damage. His sanity was guranteed, but his pain of repercussions caused him years of angst. One doesn't get this close to the sun without some melting of the wings. But if he hadn't, we would not have this. This is headlong sacrifice and into the abyss! Bowie foresaw transfiguration!

[MrMajorTime]

"I must be only one in a million": to smell the onset of greatness! It was now defined, he was exalted! No matter what else transpired (oddly he drove himself FURTHER with the Berlin triptych), trying to come off the highest of highs. He showed the world that he was not only an actor, but a PERSONIFIER! He WAS TJN: an alien visiting our planet, propelling us into the future, just as much as Nikola Tesla (with HIS electronic patents) in his own unique way, that paved the way for modernistic art.

[MrMajorTime]

@sharrison586 Stop skipping! Savor the intro. Shakespeare had a curtain. Song starts and it works to its crescendo. There is reason for the build up. It was Bowie at his best, even better than all before. This was Bowie introducing himself as Thomas Jerome Newton, if only he could have flavored the soundtrack to The Man Who Fell To Earth! Two careers at this point! At once and at once there were mountains, and he could never be down. Who could connect him with love? So honestly exposing himself.

[sharrison586]

I always skip the 1st 60 seconds. I know, it's wrong, but I can't wait for the song to start.

[CuppyCakeandMe]

This is One of his Master Pieces!! Bowie The Playwright.... "The Thin White Duke" I still have the Album . No matter what he creates it's PURE CLASS!!!

Cocaine is a hell of a drug!

I'm going to thumbs up every comment that has the word "Cocaine" in it...
