Scream Like a Baby Lyrics

Lyric discussion by FeatherKing 

Cover art for Scream Like a Baby lyrics by David Bowie

"Sam was a gun And I never knew his last name And we never had no fun" to me this always sounded like the narrator just repeating what he's been brainwashed into bielieving,it sounds exactly like something a police officer(or other authority) would say to convince him not to resist"Sam was dangerous,You didnt know him,He wasn't your friend". though you can still hear the small hints of sadness in his vocals,"Singing old songs we loved"
