The Passenger

(Iggy Pop)



I am a passenger

And I ride and I ride

I ride through the city's backside

I see the stars come out of the sky

Yeah, they're bright in a hollow sky

You know it looks so good tonight



I am a passenger

I stay under glass

I look through my window so bright

I see the stars come out tonight

I see the bright and hollow sky

Over the city's a rip in the sky

And everything looks good tonight






Singin' la la la la la-la-la la

La la la la la-la-la la

La la la la la-la-la la la-la



Get into the car

We'll be the passenger

We'll ride through the city tonight

See the city's ripped insides

We'll see the bright and hollow sky

We'll see the stars that shine so bright

The sky was made for us tonight



Oh the passenger

How how he rides

Oh the passenger

He rides and he rides

He looks through his window

What does he see?

He sees the sided hollow sky

He see the stars come out tonight

He sees the city's ripped backsides

He sees the winding ocean drive

And everything was made for you and me

All of it was made for you and me

'cause it just belongs to you and me

So let's take a ride and see what's mine



Singing...



Oh, the passenger

He rides and he rides

He sees things from under glass

He looks through his window's eye

He sees the things he knows are his

He sees the bright and hollow sky

He sees the city asleep at night

He sees the stars are out tonight

And all of it is yours and mine

And all of it is yours and mine

Oh, let's ride and ride and ride and ride...



Singing...
