Lyrics
Well, Billy rapped all night about his suicide
How he'd kick it in the head when he was 25
Speed jive, don't wanna stay alive when you're 25
And Wendy's stealing clothes from Marks and Sparks
Freddy's got spots from ripping off the stars from his face
Funky little boat race
Television man is crazy
Saying we're juvenile delinquent wrecks
Oh, man, I need TV when I got T‑Rex
Brother, you guessed, I'm a dude, dad
All the young dudes carry the news
Boogaloo dudes carry the news
All the young dudes (I wanna hear you)
Carry the news (I wanna see you)
Boogaloo dudes (and I wanna relate to you)
Carry the news
Now Lucy's looking sweet 'cause he dresses like a queen
But she can kick like a mule, it's a real mean team
But we can love, oh yeah, we can love
And my brother's back at home with his Beatles and the Stones
Never got it off on that revolution stuff
What a drag, too many snags
Now I've drunk a lot of wine, and I'm feeling fine
Gonna race some cat to bed (oh-oh-oh-oh)
Is there concrete all around, or is it in my head?
Brother, you guessed, I'm a dude, dad
All the young dudes (I wanna hear you)
Carry the news (I wanna see you)
Boogaloo dudes (and I wanna relate to you)
Carry the news
All the young dudes (have you heard the latest news?)
Carry the news (everybody's got the right to choose)
Boogaloo dudes (you can be a dude, dad)
Carry the news
All the young dudes (I've seen you on the street)
Carry the news (sort of guy I'd like to meet)
Boogaloo dudes (you're a dude, dad)
Carry the news
Hey, you!
You with the glasses
I want you
I'm a dude, dad
Writer(s): David Bowie
