Lyrics I Can’t Read - David Bowie

I Can’t Read

I can’t read and I can’t write down\nI don’t know a book from countdown\nI don’t know what shadow gets me\nAll I’ve got is someone’s face\nCan I see the family smile?\nCan I reach tomorrow?\nCan I walk a missing mile?\nCan I feel?\nCan I please?\nI can’t reach it anymore\nI just sit back and ignore\nI just can’t seem to get it right\nI can’t reach it, I can’t reach it\nMoney goes to money heaven\nBodies go to body hell\nI sit back and catch the chase\nSwitch the channel, watch the police cars\nI can’t reach it anymore\nI just sit back and ignore\nI just can’t seem to get it right, get it right\nI can’t reach it, I can’t reach it
