 CANDIDATE (DEMO) - David Bowie
 Album: Diamond Dogs (1974)

(    ) 3x

 Inside every teenage girl there's a fountain
 Inside every young pair of paints there's a mountain
 Inside every mother's eyes   is Tommy Tinkrem's bed
 Inside every candidate   waits a grateful dead

 I make it a thing, when I on my own to relief myself
 I make it a thing, when I gazelle on stage to believe in myself
 I make it a thing, to glance in window panes and look pleased with myself
 Yeah, and pretend I'm walking home

 I took it so bad, I sat in the correction room
 Took me a fag, and a kick in the moon
 Well, I ain't gonna suck no radar wing because inside this tin is tin
 Would you like techno plate   'cause I'm your candidate, oh yeah

 It's a matter of life and the way you walk, you've got a Brylcream queen
 It' a matter of fact in the things you talk, that keeps his passport clean
 A matter of fact that a cock ain't a cock on a twelve inch screen
 So I'll pretend I'm walking home 

 You don't have to scream a lot to keep an age in tune
 You don't have to scream a lot to predict monsoons
 You don't have to paint my contact black   now I've hustled a pair of jeans
 Do I have to give your money back   when I'm the Fuhrerling

 I'll make you a deal I'll say I came from Earth and my tongue is taped
 I'll make you a deal you can get your kicks on the candidate
 I'll make you a deal for your future's sake I'm the candidate
 Let's pretend we're walking home

 [Intro]...... repeat until fade
