Tekster: David Bowie. Rubber Band.

(Bowie)

Rubber band
There?s a rubber band that plays tunes out of tune
In the library garden Sunday afternoon
While a little chappie waves a golden wand

Rubber band
In 1910 I was so handsome and so strong
My moustache was stiffly waxed and one foot long

And I loved a girl while you played teatime tunes

Dear Rubber band, you?re playing my tunes out of tune, oh

Rubber band, Won?t you play a haunting theme again to me

While I eat my scones and drink my cup
of tea

The sun is warm but it?s a lonely afternoon
Oh, play that theme

Rubber band
How I wish that I could join your Rubber band
We could play in lively parks throughout the land
And one Sunday afternoon I?d find my love

Rubber band
In ?14-?18 war I went to sea
Thought my Sunday love was waiting home for me

And now she?s married to the leader of the band, oh
(spoken)
Oh sob ? I hope you break your baton
