Lyrics: No Control
Album: Outside
Artist: David Bowie
 

Stay away from the future
Back away from the light
It’s all deranged – no control

Sit tight in your corner
Don’t tell God your plans
It’s all deranged – no control

If I could control tomorrow’s haze
The darkened shore wouldn’t bother me
If I can’t control the web we weave
My life will be lost in the fallen leaves

Every single move’s uncertain
Don’t tell God your plans
It’s all deranged
No control

I should live my life on bended knee
If I can’t control my destiny
You’ve gotta have a scheme
You’ve gotta have a plan
In the world of today, for tomorrow’s man

Stay away from the future
Don’t tell God your plans
It’s all deranged
No control

Forbidden words, they deafen me
In memories, I’ve no control
See how a sinful man
Burns his tracks, his bloody robes
You’ve gotta have a scheme
You’ve gotta have a plan
In the world of today, for tomorrow’s man

I should live my life on bended knee
If I can’t control my destiny
No control I can’t believe I’ve no control
It’s all deranged
