Up The Hill Backwards

David Bowie · Best Of Sight & Sound [2007]

The vacuum created by the arrival of freedom

And the possibilities it seems to offer

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it



A series of shocks - sneakers fall apart

Earth keeps on rolling - witnesses falling

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it



Yea, yea, yea - up the hill backwards

It'll be alright ooo-ooo



While we sleep they go to work

We're legally crippled it's the death of love

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it



More idols than realities ooo-ooo

I'm OK, you're so-so ooo-ooo

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it

It's got nothing to do with you, if one can grasp it



Yea, yea, yea - up the hill backwards

It'll be alright ooo-ooo
