David Bowie – The Stars (Are Out Tonight)

Stars are never sleeping
Dead ones and the living

We live closer to the earth
Never to the heavens
The stars are never far away
Stars are out tonight

They watch us from behind their shades
Brigitte, Jack, Kate and Brad
From behind their tinted window stretch
Gleaming like blackened sunshine

Stars are never sleeping
Dead ones and the living

Waiting for the first move
Satyrs and their child wives
Waiting for the last move
Soaking up our primitive world

Stars are never sleeping
Dead ones and the living

Their jealousy’s spilling down
The stars must stick together
We will never be rid of these stars
But I hope they live forever

And they know just what we do
That we toss and turn at night
They’re waiting to make their moves
But the stars are out tonight

Here they are upon the stairs
Sexless and not aware
They are stars, they’re dying for you
But I hope they live forever

They burn with their radiant smiles
Trap you with their beautiful eyes
They’re broke and shamed or drunk or scared
But I hope they live forever

Their jealousy’s spilling down
The stars must stick together
We will never be rid of these stars
But I hope they live forever

And they know just what we do
That we toss and turn at night
They’re waiting to make their moves on us
But the stars are out tonight

The stars are out tonight
The stars are out tonight

David Bowie - The Stars

Prevod pesme

Zvezde (večeras sijaju)

Zvezde nikad ne spavaju
Pokojne ni one žive

Živimo bliže zemlji
Nikad nebesima
Zvezde nikad nisu daleko
Zvezde večeras sijaju

Posmatraju nas iz svojih senki
Bridžit, Džek, Kejt i Bred
Iza svojih zatamnjenih prozora
Blješteći kao pocrnelo sunce

Zvezde nikad ne spavaju
Pokojne ni one žive

Čekaju prvi potez
Satiri i njihove premlade žene
Čekaju poslednji potez
Upijajući naš primitivni svet

Zvezde nikad ne spavaju
Pokojne ni one žive

Iz njih kipi ljubomora
Zvezde se nikad ne drže zajedno
Tih se zvezda nikad rešiti nećemo
Ali nadam se da će živeti zauvek

A one tačno znaju šta mi radimo
Da se noću prevrćemo
Čekaju da stupe u akciju
Ali zvezde su večeras napolju

Eto ih na stepeništu
Bespolne i nesvesne
One su zvezde, one umiru za tebe
Ali nadam se da će živeti zauvek

One izgaraju od svojih blistavih osmeha
Uhvate te u zamku svojim predivnim očima
One su švorc i posramljene ili pijane ili uplašene
Ali nadam se da će živeti zauvek

Iz njih kipi ljubomora
Zvezde se nikad ne drže zajedno
Tih se zvezda nikad rešiti nećemo
Ali nadam se da će živeti zauvek

A one tačno znaju šta mi radimo
Da se noću prevrćemo
Čekaju da stupe u akciju
Ali zvezde su večeras napolju

Zvezde večeras sijaju
Zvezde večeras sijaju
