Sell Me A Coat Testo

(Bowie)

La la la la la la, la la la la la la la
A winter's day, a bitter snowflake on my
face
My summer girl takes little backward steps away

Jack Frost took her hand and left me, Jack Frost ain't so cool

CHORUS
Sell me a coat with buttons of silver
Sell me a coat that's red or gold
Sell me a coat with little patch pockets
Sell me a coat 'cause I feel cold



And when she smiles, the ice forgets to melt away

Not like before, her smile was warming yesterday
See the trees like silver candy, feel my icy hand

CHORUS
See my eyes, my window pane
See my tears like gentle rain
That's a memory of the summer day

CHORUS (twice)
La la la la la la (repeat)
