Midnight in the village
She gonn light the candle
From vigorin to cast light
Buyers leave the stage
No twin the black of guitar
Burnt together all in rage
You’ev got what it takes
You say too much
[Chorus]
Oh you will set the world babe
You will set the world on fire
I can work the scene and
I can see the magazines
I can hear the nation
I can hear the nation cry
You will set the world babe
You will set the world on fire
You will set it on fire
Kennedy would kill the lines that you’ve written
Then rock says to barbie she’s the next real things
Cracks still at hell fly, screaming like a banshee
You’re in the boat babe, reel in the water
You say too much
[Chorus]
Oh you will set the world babe
You will set the world on fire
I can work the scene and
I can see the magazines
I can hear the nation
I can hear the nation cry
You will set the world babe
You will set the world on fire
You will set it on fire
[Guitar solo]
[Chorus] x 2
Oh you will set the world babe
You will set the world on fire
I can work the scene and
I can see the magazines
I can hear the nation
I can hear the nation cry
You will set the world babe
You will set the world on fire
You will set it on fire.

Midnight in the village/See the lights of candles from daylight to gaslight/Baez leaves the stage/I can hear the nation cry
It’s no secret Bowie’s construing Bowie-cult past into something grandly nostalgic,on The Next Day. If this sentiment were an epicenter, it would be floating amongst the tambouring shimmies and reverb-swathed Jack White riffage of this late LP jam, winking at his old West Village crew.
