Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tactful cactus by your window
Surveys the prairie of your room
Mobile spins to its collision
Clara puts her head between her paws
[Verse 2]
They've opened shops down on the West side
Will all the cacti find a home?
But the key to the city
Is in the sun that pins the branches to the sky, whoa, whoa
Written by: David Bowie
