Bryan Ferry Cruel Lyrics

(Ferry/Stewart)

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.
