Gary Numan - White Light/White Heat lyrics

Only one recording of this song by Gary Numan is known, and no official lyrics are available. It seems that Gary has combined elements from two different versions of the song - the original Velvet Underground version and the David Bowie cover - and then added some of his own, which is why I've elected to credit all three musicians. Original Velvet Underground Version White light, go on messing up my mind Don't you know it's gonna make me go blind? White heat, it tickles me down to my toes Have mercy, white light, have it, goodness knows White light, go on messing up my brain White light, it's gonna drive me insane White heat, it tickles me down to my toes White light I said now, goodness knows, do it I surely do love to watch that stuff shooting itself in Watch that side, watch that side, don't you know, gonna be dead and bright Yeah, foxy mama, watch her walking down the street Come upside, your head's gonna make a dead end on your street White light, move in me and drain my brain White heat, it tickles me down to my toes White light, I said now, goodness knows White light is lighting up my eyes Don't you know it fills me up with surprise?
