Turn Blue (feat. David Bowie) [Live] Lyrics


See a black El Dorado
Oh, rolling along down below my window
That black girl in the back looks pretty good
Christ, she's beautiful
You know how soft she is
Just what you feel likeOh, and I'm so far away from her
Jesus, this is Iggy
You
You might as well come with me
When you ride the ride
There's talk and I don't wanna talkOh momma, I shot myself down
Oh momma, I shot myself down
Oh momma, I shot myself down
Oh momma, oh momma, I tell ya, I shot myself downThey're stepping on our hearts (stepping on our hearts)
Stepping on our hearts
I don't know why they're stepping on our hearts (stepping on our hearts)
Stepping on our hearts
Damn, I don't know why

Stepping on our hearts, stepping on our hearts
Stepping on our hearts, stepping on our hearts
Stepping on our hearts
Can't you see?You know, stepping on your hearts
How come the blacks, how come they, they copy you so good?
They get off on you, so ooh, sexually
If you wanna make it
Young man, you gotta make somebody come
Come out of your black
Come out of your black
Black and strong and black-black and strong and
Black
Strong
BlackJesus, it's cold in this room, it's really cold
You know I never, I never told you about this, but there's one guy
Somebody I really love, he's never around
Well, he was taking things that could be alright, that could be nice
And make him so ugly, so damn ugly
And we put out the lights on them
Yeah, we'd make it dark, we put out the lights, on them
It's idiots like you that screw me up
I know there's nothing to you
And I don't know why I treat you so kind
Come down and dance with me, dance with me
You got nobody left but me
Accept me, don't reject me, don't forget me
Momma, what color will the lights be, will they turn blue on me?
Momma, what color will the lights be?
Will they turn blue on me?
Momma
I shot myself up
Whoa momma, I shot myself up
Momma, I shot myself up, up, up, up, up
Momma
I shot myself up, down, up, down, momma
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, momma
I didn't know what I was doing, I didn't mean to, but I did it
Momma, I shot myself

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
James Newell Osterberg, Jr (born 21st April 1947 in Muskegon, Michigan, United States), better known by his stage name Iggy Pop, is a rock singer and occasional actor. Pop is one of the most important innovators of punk rock. Also referred to as "the Godfather of Punk" and "the Rock Iguana", he is widely acknowledged as one of the most dynamic stage performers of rock.

Pop was the lead singer of The Stooges, a late 1960s/early 1970s band that featured brothers Ron and Scott Asheton and Dave Alexander and was highly influential in the development of hard rock. The debut album was produced by the Velvet Underground's John Cale. The band's "I Wanna Be Your Dog" is a garage punk standard.

Raw Power was first released in1973, perhaps the first record that could truly be called punk. It was the confluence of The Stooges ages, hormones, creativity, ability, experience, tastes, lack of supervision, contempt for authority and ambition that has made Raw Power one of the most influential albums of all time.

The Stooges were infamous for performances in which Pop leapt off the stage (hence, the "stage dive"), smeared raw meat or peanut butter over his chest and cut himself with broken bottles. A glimpse of the vibrating intensity of Iggy live can be seen in the Ramones movie "End of the Century." Guitarist James Williamson became a key collaborator, a partnership documented on the 1978 album Kill City.

In 25 years as a solo artist, Pop's best-known songs have included the thumping Lust For Life, to be heard on the soundtrack of the find-a-vein, shoot-it-up movie Trainspotting, I'm Bored and The Passenger (the latter based on a poem written by Jim Morrison). David Bowie played a key role in reinvigorating Pop's post-Stooges career and was a collaborator on the albums Lust For Life and The Idiot. Iggy may be under-rated as a songwriter. Bowie and Tina Turner covered his "Tonight". Bowie also put out his own version of "China Girl," while Grace Jones covered the icey "Nightclubbing".
