Queen Bitch (live Santa Monica '72) Lyrics


I'm up on the eleventh floor
And I'm watching the cruisers below
He's down on the street
And he's trying hard to pull sister FloOh, my heart's in the basement
My weekend's at an all time low
'Cause she's hoping to score
So I can't see her letting him goWalk out of her heart
Walk out of her mind
Oh, not herShe's so swishy in her satin and tat
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat
Oh God, I could do better than that
She's an old-time ambassador
Of sweet talking, night walking games
And she's known in the darkest clubs
For pushing ahead of the damesIf she says she can do it
Then she can do it, she don't make false claims
But she's a Queen, and such are queens
That your laughter is sucked in their brainsNow she's leading him on

And she'll lay him right down
Yes she's leading him on
And she'll lay him right downBut it could have been me
Yes, it could have been me
Why didn't I say, why didn't I say,
No, no, no
She's so swishy in her satin and tat
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat
Oh God, I could do better than thatSo I lay down a while
And I gaze at my hotel wall
Oh the cot is so cold
It don't feel like no bed at allYeah I lay down a while
And I look at my hotel wall
But he's down on the street
So I throw both his bags down the hallAnd I'm phoning a cab
'Cause my stomach feels small
There's a taste in my mouth
And it's no taste at allIt could have been me
Oh yeah, it could have been me
Why didn't I say, Why didn't I say,
No, no, noShe's so swishy in her satin and tat
In her frock coat and bipperty-bopperty hat
Oh God, I could do better than that

David Bowie (born David Robert Jones on 8th January 1947 in Brixton, London, UK) is an English singer, songwriter, musician, and actor. Active in six decades of popular music and frequently reinventing his music and image, Bowie is widely regarded as an innovator, particularly for his work in the 1970s. He has been cited as an influence by many musicians and is known for his distinctive voice and the intellectual depth of his work.

As a multi-instrumentalist, he is famous for playing the guitar, piano, and saxophone, but also plays the harmonica, drums, cello, marimba, bass guitar, koto, and stylophone. His first single was released in 1964, but he rose to fame with the 1969 single "Space Oddity" and the 1972 album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars. Subsequent albums have explored blue-eyed soul, electronica, and new wave, often pre-dating these genres' popularity or even the point at which they were defined as genres.

Bowie is one of the most influential rock musicians from the 1970s to the present. He has sold an estimated 136 million albums in his career and has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In addition to his musical career, Bowie has had success as a painter, web-designer, sculptor, Broadway actor starring in The Elephant Man, and film actor starring in many films.

Bowie is also credited as being a major inspiration behind the new romantic, futurist movement, and subsequent development of electronic/electronica music.

Bowie frequently brings the worlds of high art, mime, and straight theatre to his stage acts. His most famous on-stage look was that of Ziggy Stardust; other personae include Halloween Jack, Aladdin Sane, and the Thin White Duke.
