Lyrics of China Girl by David Bowie
intro
Oh, little China girl
Oh, little China girl
verse
I couldn't escape this feeling with my China girl
I feel a wreck without my little China girl
I hear her heart beating, loud as thunder
Saw these stars crashing
verse
I'm a mess without my little China girl
Wake up in the morning, where's my little China girl?
I hear her heart is beating, loud as thunder
I saw these stars crashing down
verse
I'm feeling tragic like I'm Marlon Brando
When I look at my China girl
And I could pretend that nothing really meant too much
When I look at my China girl
verse
I stumble into town
Just like a sacred cow
Visions of swastikas in my head
Plans for everyone
It's in the white of my eyes
verse
My little China girl
You shouldn't mess with me
I'll ruin everything you are
You know
I'll give you television
I'll give you eyes of blue
I'll give you a man who wants to rule the world
chorus
And when I get excited
My little China girl says
"Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth"
She says, "Ssh"
She says "Ssh"
She says
She says
chorus
And when I get excited
My little China girl says
"Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth"
And when I get excited
My little China girl says
"Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth"
She says, "Ssh"
She says
outro
Oh, little China girl
Oh, little China girl
Oh, little China girl
Oh, little China girl
