This is from BowieNet earlier today. The interpretation is not mine, but another fan's. I posted earlier in the "news, views, etc" forum the complete lyrics of New Killer Star. Now here is one fan's interpretation of them:
New Killer Star
See a great white scar - The planes coming to the WTC
Over Battery park - Where the WTC was located near
Then a flare glides over - The planes Hit the WTC
But I won稚 look at that scar - Sailor won't look at the holes, like all the vistors do when they come here..I have yet been there..
Oh, my nuclear baby - Bombs , or planes used as a bomb Oh, my idiot trance - shocked by the whole thing All my idiot questions - " Why , Why, Why Let痴 face the music and dance - Concert for NYC - I was there..
Don稚 ever say I知 ready, I知 ready, I知 ready - We ( NYC) were so unprepared
I never said I知 better, I知 better, I知 better - I living in the USA, and in NYC, never said I was better than anyone in this world, we are all equals..People THINK we see us as better..wrong..
Don稚 ever say I知 ready, I知 ready, I知 ready - Same as above
I never said I知 better, I知 better, I知 better than you
All the corners of the buildings - which are not there anymore
Who but we remember these - I see still them there ( In my mind)
The sidewalks and trees - Which were replanted and starting to look good
I知 thinking now - Wishing for a better future for all
I got a better way - No more War and Hate..
I discovered a star - The mind, and understanding
I got a better way - Lets live in peace..please
Ready set go - Lets START now..
I got a better way A new killer star I got a better way Ready set go I got a better way The stars in your eyes I got a better way Ready set go I got a better way I discovered a star I got a better way Ready set go
All my life in a comic - Living in love and fear
Like the way they did the bible - Lots of shit happen back then
With the bubbles and action - living life
The little details in color - Dreams and memories..
First a horseback bomber - The highjackers
Just a small thin chance - Never thought it happen in that way..
Like seeing Jesus on Dateline - so unbelieveable
Let痴 face the music and dance - Get real - REALITY
Peace to all my brothers ans sisters around the word.. I as a person, love everyone, and I am not better than anyone, BUT no one is better than me either..
No one has the right to take a life.. Lets just work on our own lives and make it better for each other.. Hey we all live on the same plant, dammit..
Interesting, innit?
