David Bowie - New Killer Star Lyrics






See the great white scar
Over Battery Park
Then a flare glides over
But I won't look at that scar
Oh, my nuclear baby
Oh, my idiot trance
All my idiot questions
Let's face the music and dance

Don't ever say I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'll never say I'm better, I'm better, I'm better
Don't ever say I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'll never said I'm better, I'm better, I'm better, I'm better than you

All the corners of the buildings
Who but we remember these?
The sidewalks and trees
I'm thinking now
I got a better way
I discovered a star
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
A new killer star
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
The stars in your eyes
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
I discovered a star
I got a better way
Ready, set, go

See my life in a comic
Like the way they did the Bible
With the bubbles and action
The little details in colour
First a horseback bomber
Just a small thin chance
Like seeing Jesus on Dateline
Let's face the music and dance
Don't ever say I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'll never said I'm better, I'm better, I'm better
Don't ever say I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready
I'll never said I'm better, I'm better, I'm better, I'm better than you

All the corners of the buildings
Who but we remember these?
The sidewalks and trees
I'm thinking now
I got a better way
I discovered a star
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
A new killer star
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
The stars in your eyes
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
I discovered a star
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
I got a better way
Ready, set, go
I got a better way
Oooh oo
I got a better way
Ready, set, go

    thumbs up for this as its my favourite david bowie song. i work hard labour and as any wanted to be a astronuaght. motto is be a hero in what you do 👍☝️💓 but seeing this tells we are all one and work together for a better*

  11. P.... ....

    The beginning of this version has been butchered, killing the song's beautifully teasing opening, possibly because it's a video for a radio edit rather than for the superior, longer, album version.

  12. O.... p....

    This is ART.

  13. M.... P....

    How did this get by me? Great song. Current yet still his own.

  17. M.... C....

    This is the first time I've heard this New Killer Star track. It's really good.

  18. �.... ....

    这个mv有点洗脑嗷

  19. T.... T....

    Приятное видео...

  20. C.... 0....

    This is my own idea about what this song is about.
    The people in the beginning are all doing construction activities of all sorts. "Major Tom" sleeping is a simile for the people who are stubborn-minded and oblivious to the outer world.If the craft crashes,all those construction activities will come to an end,reduced to ashes. He manages to wake up at the last moment,preventing a catastrophe.
    In view of David Bowie's negative views towards the Gulf War started as revenge for 911, he might be using Major Tom as a symbol for Laden,who caused the suffering of millions other innocent Palestinians through his actions. The people at the beginning were them.
    It also symbolises the idiocity of using nuclear weapons to destroy. Military leaders who deploy arms through sheer momentary rage are sleeping in a sense.

  21. M.... P....

    clever use of lenticular images

  22. T.... S....

    2019 and The Thin White Duke's Music STILL RESONATES

  23. S.... B....

    Looks just like my house.

  24. R.... C....

    thanks for sharing.

  25. E.... B....

    Do we know who made the video?

  26. R.... ....

    A video predicting Boomerang

  27. �.... �....

    Вот это Работа!!! Вот это и есть искусство! Это Величие!

  28. D.... Q....

    The only thing missing from this video is a picture of David Bowie.

  29. F.... M....

    This is new Bowie stuff, I like it!!!!!! Frank misssssschief

  30. E.... M....

    SUPER HIPER ULTRA MÁXIMO!!

  31. J.... 8....

    this video needs more Bowie; DISLIKE

  32. A.... F....

    A picture disc version of the album pin ups is available on record store day.

  33. J.... s....

    This was his best track for 20 years

  34. H.... C....

    Reminds me of Blue Jean. I think the bass in similar.

  35. C.... ....

    Vaso de Conaprole realness

  36. h.... s....

    most people judged 'reality' by its cover. and it was probably what david intended to do. same with this video. i think this era was the beginning of david sort of hiding behind this thick layer of fakeness, commercialism. reflecting on america post 9/11. david was a new york resident. it definitely affected him deeply. i think his work deals with the irony of american society. advertising as terrorism. visuals as atomic bombs.

  37. M.... J....

    2019 baby, thanks a lot for the music David

  38. S.... B....

    I love the pug dog.

  39. n.... ....

    I never really paid much attention to this video before but it's really well done.

  40. N.... P....

    Only now that I noticed.
    Is "New Killer" a play on the word "Nuclear"??

  41. d.... ....

    David Bowie invented Instagram's Boomerang.

  42. E.... E....

    QEPD, King David. Eternal thanks.

  43. K.... H....

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID BOWIE...ALL LIFE LONG.. GOD BLESS IN JESUS CHRIST NAME.

  45. A.... O....

    I'm loving this.

  46. k.... ....

    The way the music video is with the lines down and the back and forth picture movement who thought of those toys when you turn the handle or a cog and the picture moves around and the tune of the programme plays, it's a baby toy I think. xxxx

  47. P.... ....

    ⛔️⛔️⛔️Warning to "Star Trek" fans!!!⛔️⛔️⛔️

  48. J.... H....

    One of his best late songs.

  49. F.... d....

    Hey is that Eminem in the space suit?

  50. P.... ....

    I can see your scalp where hair used to be. It's shiny and sexy like a
    pig before a Humane Society-approved slaughter, like black Provo,
    Utah Mormon cannibals baptizing Rosemary's 11-day-old daughter.

  51. T.... ....

    Its a shame the album cover was an absolute piece of shit.

  52. F.... I....

  59. B.... G....

    en toda su trayectoria creo sonidos unicos y originales. pero me impacto su disco "Earthling" 1997, "little wonder, dead man walking, i'm afraid of americans".

  67. C.... A....

    This vid is ultimate proof that David was a GENIUS with no doubt. He purposely put 2 suns to let people know that He knew what is coming. Way too, too coincidental people. “A Genius “ ....Love U David.....! Nibiru! He knew!

  68. D.... E....

    its about the 9/11 jumpers

  69. z.... ....

    Love the treasure Bowie left us.

    My eye-bags are full of eyes after a visit from killer Ted Bundy last
    Monday. Ted played the sax and he was my band brother. He came
    to dinner to rape and kill my grandmother. Ted was timid & nice &
    seemed harmless, till he took a butcher's knife & made me armless.

    In its twice-daily-twentieth-century-measure, 1 of hurumph & fluff,
    Henry Miller wrote, in a tropical book, that he often had to throw a

  87. C.... ....

    AMAZING CLIP

  88. M.... S....

    THE most underrated late period Bowie song

  89. M.... S....

    Is it me or does the melody sound similar to "I Will Follow Him" by Peggy March?

  90. g.... s....

    instagram boomerang?

  91. F.... ....

    I feel like this video is a visual representation of what happened to Major Tom

  92. R.... B....

    david bowie marco para muchos de los 90s como un gran idolo, visionario y tendencista
