Bryan Ferry Cruel Lyrics

Cruel Lyrics

My sun is set--and my day is done
When I turn to the east I can see no
dawn
But iron horse come--buffalo gone
Like blades of grass they cut us
all down

Yes I know what it is to be free
To run as far as the eye
can see
But long knife come--buffalo gone
Like blades of grass they cut
us all down

Why in the world are you so cruel?

Here is a girl
who's working in a factory
Spends all her time there thinking what she want
to be
She got no boyfriend--she got no window
She just a lonely
heart--it's tearing me apart

There's a boy now doesn't have a word to
say
Cat got your tongue now--night to night and day to day
He got no
girlfriend--he got no money
He just a lonely heart--it's tearing me
apart

Why in the world are you so cruel?

Everywhere I go there's
a world full of heartbreak
Hole in the sky now--tell me where for God's
sake
Where is that sunshine? Where is that rainbow?
Who got an answer
here? Tell me what I want to know

Nobody knows the trouble I
see
Nobody cares--nobody but me
And James Bond, Jackie O, Johnnie Ray and
Garbo
Who got an answer here? Tell me what I want to know
