Iggy Pop - Look Away lyrics

Album: Naughty Little Doggie (1995)

I slept wlth Sable when she was 13
Her parents were too rich to do anything
She rocked her way around L.A
´Til a New York doll carried her away

Look away Look away

Now he was blond & she was dark
They called him Thunder ´cause he had the spark
The dream he dreamed was straight & pure
But the confusion of life was going to get him for sure

Look away Look away

They shared their clothes & their cowboy boots
Left them all over the floor while they dyed their roots
They live the dreann & they went non-stop
They did´ o.k. ´til the band broke up

Look away Look away Look away Look away

Unfortunately the needle broke
Their rock & roll love like a bicycle spoke
I found her in a back street with her looks half gone
She was sellin smth that I was on

Look away Look away

Now Thunder & me did not part friends
What we did once I´dn´t do again
So he stayed with the pure dream & followed the moon
´Til the drugs in his body made his mind a cartoon

Look away Look away

So a few yeahrs later Thunder died broke
Sable had a baby back at her folks
Me I went straight & serious too
There wasn´t much else that I could do

Look away Look away

So now that I am straight I am settled too
I eat & I slesp & I work like you
I got lots of feelings but I hold them down
That is a way I cope with this shitty town

Look away Look away
Look away Look away
