Karma Man - David Bowie

作词：David Bowie

Fingertip sun at sideshow stalls they throw the balls

At coconut fur that hides behind

coloured shades that blind your eyes

Every childs mother holds an ice cream cone

they circle round

Perceived unknown by an eye that peers

from a hole in the tent where no one goes

A figure sitting cross legged on the floor

he's clogged and clothed in saffron robes

His beads are all he owns

Slow down slow down

Someone must have said that slow him down

Slow down slow down

Its pictured on the arms of the karma man

Fairy tale skin depicting scenes from human zoos

Impermanent toys like peace

and war a gentle face you've seen before

Karma man tattooed on your side the wheel of life

I see my times and who I've been

I only live now and I don't know why

I struggle hard to take these pictures in but

All my friends can see is just the pinkness of his skin

Slow down slow down

Someone must have said that slowed him down

Slow down slow down

Its pictured on the arms of the karma man

Slow down slow down

Someone must have said that slowed him down

Slow down slow down

Its pictured on the arms of the karma man
